roses!

    Flowers arrived on my birthday with no card. "Alex! I have a secret admirer! This is so cool!" "Oh, there wasn't a card? My parents sent them." D'OH. But they sure are pretty. Along with the sunflowers from Alex and the roses from... okay, I'm just spoiled. And my apartment is full of flowers.

      My parents send me birthday flowers too, usually at work though! I love the cocked eyebrows and curious onlookers while I carry them back to my desk though ;)
      You can pretend!

      Happy Happy Birthday From all of us to you.
      We wish it was our birthday so we could party too.

      My mother, frugal and cynical, taught me to be exceedingly suspicious of people who spend money on flowers because they are such useless gifts. The thought is good but the reality is poor. Ask the family to club together for scuba lessons next year. Or some sky diving. Or a pasta machine.

      I am ever the pragmatic type, and yet, I love to get flowers...any kind of flowers...from anyone...anywhere...and for any occasion.

      I agree with the former comment the combination of colors is glorious. Enjoy them, smell them and revel in their beauty. Happy Birthday!

      Thanks for the birthday wishes. I'm not too thrilled about this whole 35 thing, but so far, it's not too bad!

      Yummy looking cake. But what day was your birthday? Mine was the 10th. Are we birthday twins?

    12. smitten (24 months ago | reply)

      Mine is the 11th. Close!

      My own mother's birthday is on the 11th! Just one more reason to be one of the biggest Smitten Kitchen fans around. :) That and you always make cakes that make me want to run right into the kitchen and start separating eggs.
