Look how sweet. My Birthday is not until this Wednesday, March 4, so I wasn't even expecting this.My girlfriends at work called me over from my desk the other day, one of them with a look of distress. I thought 'oh shit, there's a problem'. As I turned the corner, standing there were not only the girls I work with, but some clients as well, belting out Happy Birthday. As much as I love joyful, singing, 'all the attention on me' fun moments- when a big group of people are belting out "Happy Birthday" to me, I get giggly and red. It's a combo of joy, delight and embarrassment. All I can do is giggle like a clown. It makes me so happy. People singing, JUST FOR ME! I love it.
Anyway, look how nice. A carrot cake. (Cara said "Trenny, we know you like organic, so we got you carrot") .....Now that's thoughtful. One girl there was Jewish and told me to take the knife, smear my name with it and make a wish. A Jewish tradition that I had never heard of. Did you guys know this? ( and no, for the millionth time, I am NOT Jewish!! haha) Anyway, she then said that as I do it, I had to close my eyes and make my wish and it will come true. I got to closin' and smearin' and wishin', until Cara said "Jesus, Trenny, quit smearing before you kill the cake." hahaha- I was laughing so hard and had to explain that I had a lot of wishing to do! lol
....and Maritza made me her delicious (and my favorite) Empanadas. Delicious delight. I am a lucky girl. And sick to my stomache full. :)*Hey, my little, funky hand looks so chubby in this picture! ewww- that looks funny!!!!!!!!
