It's my birthday today! 

I love any chance to celebrate, and am looking forward to eating my cake...

This photo was shot on a subway during a recent trip to New York City. Can you see the harpist in the background? Too much fun!

Birthday Thai

{The rare date night w/ a smiling husband}

Husband  and I hit Lark Street in Albany on my birthday. It was suppose to be a restaurant crawl, with appetizers at one place, then walking to another for dinner...

We started off at a favorite place, Sukothai, and ordered a glass noodle soup and Thai egg rolls to share.

The place is tiny with eight tables, and the decor is brass figures, Christmas lights and a smiling photo of the Thai Royal couple. We got our favorite table for two, next to the red blinking "OPEN" sign in the window.  Never made it to any other restaurants, the soup and egg rolls filled us up enough, and we took a long chilly walk through the streets...

...finally ending up at C and S's city home where their kids and our kids were jumping on the beds. Cake and ice cream, and cupcakes that never did get frosted! Great day!
