30 Years

Howdy!

Just back from two weeks (mostly) away and, having played catch up at the office, ready to regale you all with tales of my adventures. But first...

I just want to thank you all for what proved to be a super fabulous birthday. Whether it was a phone message wishing me a happy birthday, a thoughtful email wishing me a lovely day, gifts that prove you really know me (thanks, Nadine, Lindsey and Brandon, Caitlin, Cristin and Diane), or lovely cards that now reside in a place of pride on the dining room table, I felt really loved, and thank you all for that, as it is the best gift of all, is it not?

I got this (approximate, from memory) message from Caitilin, Cristin and Diane, and I think they said it best:

"What to get you for your 3oth birthday? You already have a handsome hubby, a hysterically funny family, gorgeous friends, and a rockin' degree, so what else is there to get you? Cheese--glorious cheese, with funny names and even funnier smells..."

A membership to the Cheese of the Month Club. Genius. It started with three glorious cheeses that ARRIVED ON MY DOORSTEP like they had been delivered by the Cheese Fairy. It was a miracle. A delicious, delicious miracle. A week later I am still basking in the joy of Jarlsberg.

Thanks, all, it was truly a very, very happy birthday.

Love You,
Robyn

Haha, I have to say, I think Cristin is mostly responsible for that hilarious message. Now what can we top it with next year? Maybe I will secretly develop a NEW cheese formula, and dub it 'Hammerhead Shark'! "Cause who dosen't want to eat shark cheese?
