My Birthday!

I had a great birthday celebrating
with my friends at work and also
my good friend, Ryan. At work, we
had a fancy strawberry shortcake
(my favorite!) and my desk was
elaborately decorated with streamers
and beautiful flowers. Many patients
wished me a happy birthday since it
was really obvious that it was my
birthday!

After work, I picked Ryan up from school and we headed off to a secret dinner
location that he had reservations for. Turns out we were going to India, “A
Taste of India” at least. We had a fantastic meal and really nice servers. They
brought us some unknown, delicious appetizer "on the house." And after our
tasty meal of coconut curry for me and something too spicy and lamb for Ryan,
we ordered some good rice pudding for dessert.


And since a candle wouldn’t stick in the pudding,
they brought out a baklava with a candle in it for
me to blow out. Ryan even sang the birthday song
to me!
