The big day

If only the above photos had a bottle of wine shown, it would be an excellent pictorial summary of the partay Sandy threw for my birthday. There were fun and interesting people, satisfying wines, a table of delectable appetizers, and cupcakes with neon-colored frosting!

We did a test at the end of the night. We applied frosting to Sandy's face and determined that there must have been some serious dyes in that frosting.(maybe it was appropriate that Chris referred to them as the Love Canal cupcakes). This is what was left after he washed off the frosting (it was a pink cupcake).

I for one had a great time. Sandy described it as a "quiet, adult affair" but I beg to differ based on the bottles of wine we went through and the fact that H sang a giggly happy birthday to me while offering up a cupcake with a lit candle sticking out of it.

Anyway it was a success if only for the fact that we fit that many people (11) in our small condo!
