I would like some kind of strawberry dessert now. I'm not picky.
I was thinking how good angel food cake sounds right about now.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

meara, did anyone say Pavlova? That's the festive gluten-free option, I think.

Jesse I made a pavlova last year! :) it was good but v messy.
I'm thinking icebox cake with gluten free bought cookies, so I don't have to fuss with whether my gluten free baking is any good. But I do want angel food cake now.

I've never had pavlova. I'm exhausted today. Meanwhile, ltc woke up saying "what are we doing today? Another party?"

Tea: I made $27 on one of my clean out bags from thred up with a possible $16 more if stuff sells. The second bag hasn't been processed yet. I think I'll treat myself to a nice purse from the website after the next bag is processed.

Aw! But see, this is exactly why I've always liked my 12/26 birthday -- it's a softer let-down from the Big Deal that is Christmas.

I can see that. Though, I always liked having a birthday 7 months after Christmas because that meant presents twice a year.
We leave for vacation Friday morning. So I need to unpack the party stuff and pack for the trip. Instead I have ordered medical supplies, set a hold for the mail, and set a hold for the newspaper. When the sitter comes I'm going to get my oil change and a dead headlight fixed.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Today is my birthday! Going out for a fancy dinner, then we're watching "Paddington Two" tonight. Loved the first one and have been saving this one for a special occasion LIKE MY BIRTHDAY.
