I've just had my birthday weekend and have entered the 75th year. I enjoyed celebrating myself. Saturday (the actual birthday), I went out with the "running" group who are mostly all walking now. I have become a walker with my 75 year old left knee and plan to continue with that for the long term. We celebrated "me" with coffee and treats which is the usual Saturday morning routine, but I got toasted! In the evening, I went to see The Red Thread, performed by Elle, at the Langham Theatre. It was a very well done presentation of Elle's life and her relationship with the three muses. It was cleverly put together and I so admired her red crocheted pantsuit - I wonder if it was a thrift store "find" or do she make it herself???
Thursday evening, my pre birthday, eve, I had 3 women to dinner for our regular book club and was presented with my absolute favourite chocolate cake! I have yet to make one of these cakes but I do have the recipe. It's the best chocolate cake that I have ever eaten. The women did the candles and song version of the birthday.
Friday, as part of my pre-birthday celebration I had lunch with a friend at the Kaslo hotel and we were served an excellent fish chowder! I will return.
Sunday, another friend took me for lunch, once again at the Kaslo Hotel. This time, I had the "mini brunch" breakfast - also very good. Then I had a walk with Dave in the areas of Woodbury and Ainsworth and we dined at JB's in Woodbury that evening. I have been extremely overfed!
Happy Birthday, me!
