Happy Birthday, Amy!

Another birthday has come and gone, and boy, do my friends and family know me well. It seems everyone gave me something food-related this year. It makes me wonder if I'm giving off some sort of scent. Don't they know my metabolism is slowing? Not that I care...

Anyway, here are some photos of this year's gifts, including a surprise crawfish boil from my wonderful husband. (Well done, Chris).

Thank you, everyone!!!

Wordless: Amy's Birthday 2014

Happy Birthday, Amy!

Since last year was a big one (4-0, oh no!), this year we honored Amy's birthday with a little less fanfare. We had 15 pounds of live crawfish delivered up from Louisiana and had a crawfish boil for two Saturday afternoon. While we observed another year's passing with a feast reminiscent of the Big Easy, BFF Karen (who gets to live there) toasted Amy's birthday with a piece of lemon blueberry marscapone cake (and sent pics to prove it!). How lovely to be celebrated in two different states!
