Friday I stayed overnight with Joanne and in the morning we went apple and raspberry picking near Princeton. These apples later became two scrummy pies!
Back in Manhattan that evening, Mike and I dined on steak fried swimming in butter. Sounded good in theory, looked somewhat terrifying in progress, but the proof is in the eating and the steak was D-licious! Chef Michael gets a full four stars. Then it was on to see Mates of State at Irving Plaza. The show was great and I came away with some birthday swag.
Sunday we went to conference at 12, then home to make pies and castle-shaped birthday cakes. We had our first dinner on Jenn Cook's terrace downstairs, with the singing of Happy Birthday and, I swear, fireworks over the river to follow. All for me, of course! With phone calls from family and friends galore the day was complete. I'm a happy girlie!

Happy birthday sweet VIEVE! You are loved.
Yeah, happy birthday, G!
You look really great in those pictures, by the way.
So glad you had lots of different things happening on your birthday. I celebrate and rejoice at being Genevieve's Mum for 30 years! Thanks be to God for Genevieve fair. (Well, dark)
It's been almost a month since your last post!!! :( I saw you're sister's Croatia pictures on Flickr. I'm jealous. How was jury duty?
