Birthday Recap

S-'s birthday has come and gone. We had a delightful dinner meticulously and lovingly prepared by yours truly. I sweat for hours over a hot stove. I even broke out the good china to serve the food in (sample left). She really enjoyed her dinner and the fancy, individually-wrapped, folded cookies I baked for dessert.

She liked her presents immensely. The height of the evening came when she unwrapped a watch she had been hinting she wanted. I thought it was nice. It has a silver face with small pearls surrounding it and the band is two strands of pearls with silver links. As soon as she opened it my son A- hollers out "That's bling bling!".

God I love irony.
