I am now a liberated woman. We had pizza for our birthday dinner :o). Alan had invited the "children" for cake and ice-cream at 6pm, but that is an awkward time as no one had a chance to eat sooooooooo I said why don't we order pizza. Pizza is not our favorite food. But........ we ordered all sorts of pizza and everyone was pleased. I may do this again, NO WORK that is why I am liberated. And the clean-up was a snap. Earlier in the day we drove to Morgan for a hamburger and Raspberry shake at Steph's. 70 miles for a hamburger. As Alan and I are fond of commenting "only in America" Only half the family were here, but that is still a crowd. One son is in So. Cal. on vacation. Another is in England with his son on a graduation trip to watch soccer. And another son lives in California so was not able to make it. But I heard from them and that was wonderful.
The cake was my Alan's favorite , white with raspberry filling and real whipped cream. He never forgets the "Irish" connection so there were shamrocks on it. :o)

Someone asked me one time
"when is your birthday?"
I answered "August 22nd"
"What year?"
"Every year!"
The cream frosting was good. But don't worry, I nibbled in a corner next to the dish :o)

Okay, so why does Mom have to have Dad's favorite cake on HER birthday? That doesn't sound very "liberated" to me! Ha-ha! Just kidding! I'm glad to hear fun was have by all especially the birthday girl. Wish we were there.
You picked up on that huh? It was put in so that it shows I am liberated, I CHOOSE to have my sweetheart's favorite cake. :o) Does that sound liberated?
Glad to see you had a party for your Birthday.
What a nest picture of you and Alan!
You are dear friends, God bless!
Love, Donna & Ray
