Birthday moments, caught on film (sorta)

Moment #1: breakfast in bed!
Woke up to breakfast in bed: 6 strips of bacon, 2 hash brown patties, a pile of scrambled eggs and a giant pot of coffee. MMMMM. Not to worry, I had half for breakfast and saved the other half for lunch. :D

Moment #2: blooms, baby, blooms!
Not one, but TWO bunches of bright beautiful blooms! One upstairs…and one downstairs!

birthday tulips surprise, a 2nd bouquet!

Moment #3: work, baby, work!
A bunch of mini-moments filling orders in the sewing room, between 8am and 4pm, followed by a mad dash to the post office!

Moment #4: a little bit of greek goodness
Dinner at Kokkari Restaurant in SF. Best. Lamb chops. EVER! And a flourless chocolate cake, complete with candle and Happy Birthday scrawled in chocolate, on the house. I should have shot a photo of it but it flew into my mouth before I could get my camera out!

Moment #5: greased lightning!
Opening night of Grease the Musical at Golden Gate Theatre in SF. Cute and entertaining but managed to get stuck next to THE worst nightmare of a couple ever who talked, sang, guffawed, whooped and hollered at the tops of their voices for ENTIRE show. Except maybe for the 5 minutes after I asked them to keep it down. So annoying! Aside from that, a good time AND I have a newfound respect for Taylor Hicks who played Teen Angel in the Beauty School Dropout scene. Loved it!

Moment #6: meet me at the clock!
A few liquid desserts at Clock Bar at the Westin St. Francis with the hubs, Nalin, Tony and Jenn. Made Jenn bring a box of uncooked spaghetti so I could get my long life noodle in before midnight. Good drinks, great company. The perfect way to end the day!

    Happy (Belated) Birthday! Sounds like you had a great day.

    I’ve seen Grease (the movie) a million times and wanted to see it on stage. I was kinda put off by Taylor Hicks starring in it but now that I know he’s just in that small part and did a good job I think I’ll try to get tickets now. :)

    Thanks, ladies!

    I was initially totally unimpressed about Taylor Hicks being in it too, but I have to admit he was one of the highlights!
