9/6/10

I'm just not sure how you would wrap it..



I'm a century old today. Divided by two. Plus one.



If you INSIST on celebrating with me, bring pie or ice cream - because I don't do cake.


Oh, and no gifts, please. Just perhaps a little something over here.


xoxoxox to all of you. You lift me up every single day, and for that I am eternally thankful.

    Happy, Happy Birthday!!! I'll bring pie for you and cake for me (because I would never pass up an opportunity for cake.)

    Hope you have a wonderful day. You deserve it!

    Happy Birthday you youngin'!! Is French Silk pie okay with you? I'm a cake person, so I'll bring mine with me!

    Hope your special day is filled with lots of giggles and smiles (and that's before the Mimosas).

    Happy Birthday! I love the cartoon. I can relate to your tastes. I am not a cake person either, but any other dessert will do.

    We made strawberry rhubarb pie yesterday, because it was cooler yesterday. With frozen strawberries and rhubarb we picked fresh from gardens. If you had lived closer, I would have brought a piece over with some vanilla ice cream. Hope it was a great day!
