And there goes another quarantine birthday. Not all was lost, though; I had a great day celebrating turning 39.
Earlier in the week, Clara and Daddy were busy baking cookie dough cupcakes in anticipation of my birthday.
This was surprising as Daddy isn't usually one for tasting. ;-)
Brynn was more interested in decorating, so she let Daddy and Clara take the lead on baking and she swooped in to frost. I had run some errands on Saturday and came home to find that not only did they decorate the cupcakes, but what you see here is another full-on chocolate cake! They had an extra cake mix and frosting, so they baked a whole other cake and frosted that too. Whew!
I see there was a piece missing already; I probably ate it.
My morning exercise group surprised me with a Sandy's delivery in the morning. Everyone was pretty excited about that.
Dana had already planned to get me my fav, bacon breakfast pizza from Casey's. I feel full now just typing about all this food!
My parents stopped by for a social distancing birthday party in the garage. We set out the cupcakes so they could enjoy a birthday treat with us too.
And then I plopped myself down on the couch later in the afternoon and started a movie...all alone. It was glorious. I watched that until Dana came home with my Red Lobster birthday dinner.
Mmm, the cupcakes were super tasty!
I received some very nice gifts of homemade jewelry and a decorative garland.
Thank you for all the birthday wishes and cards and gifts! The end of my 30s is off to a pretty good start so far!
