I have written before that I just love my birthday! I’m beside myself with joy. I rarely get presents simply because that’s not how we roll in our family. We enjoy each other and eat and if any one wants to buy gifts we do – not because we have to. Such freedom to love.
So, today is my birthday and I am older! I went out for Pie with my good friend D.

I had Gooseberry Pie for the first time in my life and I loved it. Tart and yummy! And this pie shop is so quaint. http://www.uppercrustpiebakery.com/

And then we went to 10,000 Villages. If you haven’t been to a 10,000 Villages store then you really need to find one. They are so much fun to see the crafts from all over the world and the history of these stores can be found on their web site: http://www.tenthousandvillages.com/about-history/
And because it’s my birthday I give to YOU a weekend song:
Have a great birthday Cate.
Thank you so much Al! 😀

Sorry I missed your birthday. I’ve been missing your posts in my Reader for some reason. 😦
My nan used to grow gooseberries so I had a lot when I was growing up. Haven’t had them for years now though. You’ve reminded me how good they were. Maybe I should plant a bush…
I’m glad that brought you good memories. I am also thinking of planting gooseberries. That was such a great pie!
