Celebrating Sally's birthday

I took my friend and neighbor Sally to lunch on her birthday (March 28). We ate at an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet. I was lucky to get this photo as she was entering the buffet line. The mirror behind the buffet was a bit tricky to try to navigate.

I was impressed with Sally's healthy choices. I, on the other hand, pigged out on Egg Foo Young.

I also got some sushi and had to take a photo to share with my friend Halle of Halle's Hobbies. I explained to Sally how Halle had recently prepared some sushi and shared the experience on her blog. Of course, Halle's photos were much better than mine!!

After dessert, I gave Sally a gift. Not the gift I was (and still am) making, because that has turned into a nightmare of epic proportions, but a small gift I bought last year and forgot about.

It was obviously a hit because she got a laugh out of it!

Thank you for your nice comments on my polymer clay--I guess all that playing with Play Doh as a kid really paid off!

Wishing you a Happy Easter!; 2:40 PM, March 30, 2013
