Celebrating a Birthday

Yesterday at 10:25 a.m. my biological odometer officially rolled over another year.  The  birthdays seem to come faster and faster every year, but I'm very grateful God gave me another birthday to celebrate.

It was a quiet day at home.  I didn't have to work because only two ladies came in for Afternoon Tea, so a server took care of them.  The weather was wintry, so I was glad I didn't have to make the drive to downtown Detroit.

One of the servers at The Whitney shares the same birthday as me so I made a chocolate mound cake to take to work today when we were both there.


I mentioned on my Facebook page that I had to think long and hard about taking a homemade cake to work because our pastry chef turns out masterpieces, but I decided I'm not a pastry chef so I can't be critiqued as such.  Below is Annie and me with the cake.  She loved it and so did our co-workers!


I received lots of cards, phone calls, e-mails, texts and Facebook wishes.  If one came from you, thank you very much.  I felt the love!  


I also received a beautiful bouquet of flowers from a sweet lady and her family.  I affectionately call her my adopted daughter, and she's actually the same age as my daughter.


We met my son, Steve, daughter-in-law, Sharon, and granddaughter, Brooke at Red Lobster for a birthday dinner.


And now another year begins!
