40, 11

Yes, it is my 40-11th birthday today!

The weather is horrible, given that the remnants of Hurricane Bertha are passing over the country, but we are having a great day.

Did I ever say how amazing my family is?  Did I catch a roll of the eyes?  Hm, maybe I have  :-)

They made me the most awesome (just watched the Lego movie, so this word might be repeated a lot in the near future) meal...

 

Our daughter is now a vegan, so it was partly meaty and partly meat-free, but all of it was totally delicious.

To wash it down, they had got hold of some Cisk, a Maltese beer which is only available in Malta or (it would seem) online!


I love this stuff, and if I am careful I should have enough to last me a few weeks....

Did I ever say how great my family is?

We go camping next week - wondering how much of the hurricane will still be here for that!  Might make for an "interesting" trip!  Will post photos when we get back....

Happy 40-11 Birthday! I must look into that new RC calendar system. You ain't doing too bad for an old rocker. It sounds to me like the pizza and Cisk were well appreciated. Really nice that the family was able to score a few pints of your favorite brew. Whenever I travel, I always try a few of the local brews just to get a little local flavor. Hope Bertha moves on and leaves you with some great camping weather next week.

Happy birthday +1! (Or + 2 your time, by a few minutes, actually.) So is some of that just crust? I'm vegan and can give you a recipe if you like.

Happy Birthday! Thanks for sharing the appropriate way to count birthdays after your 40s! I'll be using it soon enough.
And you DO have a great family, and should brag about them every chance you get! And you return the favor, I know, so your gifts are all well deserved! :)

Looks like a wonderful birthday in spite of the weather. And you HAVE often said how wonderful your family is, but I love that you are so proud of them.

Happy 40-11th! I think you've proven that the forties are the best years!

Happy 40-11th! And what an "awesome" family you have! Have fun camping. I hope Bertha is off hibernating by then.
