15 Thoughts for food:
Happy day to you! I have a gift on the way...I'm not sure if it'll arrive today. :)
Happy Birthday to u fellow DBer, Enjoy your sushi. Its my birthday today too! Is your son's name Alex, cause that's what my son's name is! Freaky
Happy Birthday Stephanie!!! Hope you have a great day!
Have missed your blog for a month since I have moved to Delhi, and have just been trying to play catch up!
Loved the idea of marinated carrot salad - but can I replace grapeseed oil with some other veg oil?
And thanks for your recipe for chocolate chunk cookies! - it turned out fab! :)
Raji
Happy Birthday Stephanie! I hope you have an awesome day!
Have a fun day - it is all yours! Great looking BD dinner!
Happy Birthday:)
Happy Birthday from Downunder. Hope you had a fabulous day.
Hi Steph, Happy birthday to a fellow Virgo! Hope your day was terrific.
Enjoy & have a great day!
Happy belated birthday!!! Hope u had a great day ;)
Mmmmm - sushi and cheesecake! Awesome!
I hope you have a very Happy Birthday!
Hopefully your day was filled with even more than sushi and cheesecake, happy birthday!
Thank you, everyone!!
Erin; you're sweet. I'll be watching the mail.
Cupcaketastic; thank you! The sushi was...ok. Not as good as the place that closed recently, but it worked as a 'fix'.
And yes...my four and a half year old is named Alex...freaky, indeed.
Raji; sooo good to hear from you! And thanks!
What prompted the move?
Absolutely; use any veg oil you like.
I'm happy to hear the cookies worked for you.
Zarah; thank you very much! It was a fairly good day. I was given many wonderful presents (the Nero Wolfe DVD collection is finally mine), sushi, hugs & kisses, and finally, cheesecake.
Thanks, Winedeb!
Actually, that sushi platter was from the Take-Out Blog Party, and the cheesecake was one Matt baked for me last year. But...it was shades of things to come!
Thank you, Morven! It was a good day, and a wonderful weekend.
Hi Cakelaw! And thanks!
You're a Virgo, too? That explains why your package was so awesome...and right-on!
Thank you, Cin!
Daphne; Thanks so much! It was a perfect day.
Hey, Jelly...good to hear from you!
Seriously, sushi & cheesecake are the ways to my heart. And thanks.
Brilynn; thank you!
I am lucky...I have two very sweet guys in my life, who like to see me happy. So, yes, there were thoughtful presents, and much love, given to me. Lucky, indeed.
Oh wow - so by sheer dint of good fortune I managed to send you a care package NEARLY in time for your birthday!! :o)
Hope you had an awesome day and many many happy returns!
Jeanne...it was rather coincidental, wasn't it?? Lucky me! And thank you!
I had a good day, no complaints here!
Hey there Stephanie, hubby shifted jobs hence the move to Delhi. Besides the career part, I thought it would be a good experience for the three of us (2.3 yrd old daughter included)to be in a place very very different from the South(past 10 yrs) and the West (born and brought up). No sea, different language, different customs/attitude - character building stuff ;)
PLUS we get the chance to travel this side of our country! YAY!
My job which I also transferred to a branch office here,sucks unfortunately, so I'm seriously thinking of making a foray into the food business - in some way!
I love your latest post on cinnamon rolls - they look so good and so amazingly easy!! You inspire me to get into the kitchen and bake!
Now if only I could get inspired enough to pick up my behind and start on a blog so I could participate in all those cool events you host!
Raji
