Late birthday

Actually, my birthday came right on time, I just took forever to blog about it. Thanks to everyone who called or sent a card. I felt very loved. Even the folks waiting for the Interurban had birthday wishes for me.

Meg made some fabulous chocolate pots de crème in lieu of a cake for me. All in all, it was a pretty decent birthday.

Cheers!
