Off to a birthday dinner in a few.

We are off to meet friends for a belated birthday dinner for me.

Lovely!  It's turning into a birthday week.

Just had a six-minute video chat with Rob, Charlotte, and Hannah.  They sang “Happy Birthday” to me 🥰

We had a short but sweet dinner with our friends.  The food and company were good.  We went to Beaches as they wanted to go one last time before it closes and that was fine with us.  It was very busy, even going early on a week night.

Food was filling and therefore I am filled and full, not necessarily in that order.

Time for Tylenol. That sounds like a 1950s sitcom.

I had chicken-fried quail with a pepper cream sauce. It was preceded by a lovely bibb lettuce salad.

Dessert was called Russian ice cream cake. It was alternating layers of chocolate cake and chocolate ice cream topped with chocolate ganache and chopped pecans. Totally decadent.

Has it become common to serve the man first. Three times tonight, I received my dish before the three women at the table. I didn’t say anything to the staff, but I did say it to my friends, who had noticed it too.
