So ask me what I want to do on my birthday and I will always tell you lunch at Charlie's and then a walk on the beach. Because I'm sure that the fried calamari that I downed today was not the best option. But it was oh so good. I had a great day. I feel like I made out this year. I got a trip to the beach! And the following: a purple toaster, a cupcake maker, toaster oven pans, candles, new blanket, and a snowboarding jacket. My mother in law gave me a bag of "stuff that you won't buy yourself" things. You know, like a pie server, egg slicer, microwave plate cover, towel rack. You know, that cheap stuff that I keep telling myself that I don't really need and can't justify spending the $4-5 on.
