Since my birthday is this weekend, I thought I’d use that as an excuse to post photos I took in the week between my birthday and my sister’s in 2021, since I just got them developed a few months ago!
We had my birthday lunch downtown at Pyro’s Pizza Pies – most memorable was how we were all DYING because my mom was being really chatty with the college students who were sitting next to us. The students seemed to love her though, of couse!

My birthday Bourbon Mocha at Vice & Virtue
I knocked a cup of vodka sauce at Aldo’s on to the table, my arm, and my pants. That’s the orange part on them.
Little strawberry cakelettes I made to wrap up my own birthday shenanigans that week. They looked so fancy!
My sister’s birthday – we had lunch at R.P. Tracks – I sat across from my niece 🙂 Memorable moment from this lunch: we’re pretty sure that’s where my sister and brother-in-law contracted Covid, which they tested positive for a few days later.
We then went to the Dixon Gallery and Gardens after lunch. As it happened, there were exhibits on that featured dessert-themed art. Perfect for ME!
And finally, the birthday dessert I made for my sister: lemon cheesecake topped with lemon curd, by her request

Kat is SO. FRIGGIN. CUTE.

I loved the motion blur in some of these. Frenetic! I’ll explain what was going on here some other time, maybe.
I need to ask Kat’s mom if this is how Kat looked when she was eating cake as a little girl. Probably so.
