What a surprise!

I had a a great birthday celebration today!

I was able to celebrate with almost all of my immediate family -- we missed you E and N!  

I chose a really good restaurant for lunch!  Butcher and the Burger was excellent and everyone liked what they ordered.  K said that the French fries were the best she had ever had.  Pretty sure we will go back to try more burgers and custard.

Birthday dessert was delicious -- a canelé and passion fruit tartlet with whipped cream and lime zest.

I am getting an awesome birthday gift.  My husband, daughters and son-in-law went together to get me a ukulele!  How cool is that?  I'm a little nervous that I won't be able to learn how to play it, but there are several string instrument musicians in the family, so I should be able to get help when I need it.

Growing older isn't necessarily much fun, but this birthday was great!  : )
