Is it . . .
party
cake
presents
balloons?
I just had a wonderful birthday celebration and it didn't involve any of the above! My husband took me along while he worked in Palm Springs. Here are some of the delightful things I did:
- devoured an entire book about Shakespearean acting while sitting in Borders.
- relaxed during the most amazing pedicure of my life--it lasted 90 minutes!
- saved my husband so much money by heading back to Borders to find some fantastic books in the $1.00 section!
- savored Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Macadamia and Coconut Seven Layer Bar (I was devastated recently when I awoke from a dream just as I was about to take a big lick of coconut ice cream. This time my dream came true!)
- listened to a steel drum by moonlight while holding my husband's hand
- ate fresh cherries and chocolate for breakfast
- dived into Galway Kinnell's poems in Strong Is Your Hold.
- crawled back in bed at 10:30 AM and slept for an hour!
