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.
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Happy Scrappy Day!!
