Simple Pleasures

Today is my 55th birthday. All in all, I'm not in too bad a shape, though if anyone knows a good place to trade in spines, knees, elbows, and shoulders drop me a line, OK? Spouse very kindly baked me a sour cream/poppy seed layer cake. It's in the oven now, and will eventually be decorated with lemon curd (not really decorated, as such--more like filled with) and iced with almond cream-cheese frosting. The amusing part, though, is that even though I am well into middle age I still was very happy when spouse gave me the beater and the bowl from the cake. I will be even happier when I get the beater and the bowl from the frosting, though.

Happy birthday. You know she really loves you when she turns off the beater before letting you lick it.

HBD!!! Weird, I always thought that we were closer in age. That's what happens when you know one sibling in context of age and the others only from SCA & fandom, not school....
