Birthday Eve

It’s my birthday eve.

I love celebrating the last day of my own year.

There’s time spent with lots of “re’s”.
Reflecting
Reorganizing
Regrouping
Rethinking
Rejuvenating (involves a pedicure)

and then there are the abc’s.
Announcing
Blogging
Celebrating

Normally January 10th is grey and cold.
Today’s an amazingly sunny day instead.
Added bonus.



This is me at my 3rd birthday.
I love the “Mystery” ball favors on the table.
As you unraveled the colored tissue strips, small charms would appear within the folds.
(I don’t think they would pass child choking codes today.) 
I still love them.
It’s that mystery surprise thing.

I’m going here for a bday treat. It’s called PoPbar in NYC.

"Twenty-five rotating varieties are made daily with the aid of a machine that you can watch in action and you can get the pops in plain form, or dipped in dark, milk, or white chocolate, as well as covered in “poppings” such as shredded coconut, chopped nuts, brownie chunks, coffee grains, biscotti crumbles, and the like.”

I won’t be able to pick just one.
So I won’t.
I’ll pick quite a few.
No shame when birthdays are involved.
