Fabulous Birthday Present

Lela is my oldest, bestest friend. We've known each other for something like 39-1/2 years. But as adults, we live in different states, which means we NEVER get to celebrate birthdays together.

But this year was different. Lela actually got into town on my birthday - Tuesday - and we celebrated together last night - Wednesday.

YAY for BFF's, yummy food and fancy drinks!


 That is a coconut martini and a mango margarita - best ever!
And absolutely the real deal - no drink mixes here.

 Hugest, yummiest fresh spring rolls I've ever had.

 Massaman Beef Curry and Thai Seafood Salad. Heaven.

 What? I know it's not Hawaii, but when you get a flower in your drink, you need to put it behind your ear. 

 The cute waitress had us move to another table so there wouldn't be flash glare off the window behind us.


It really was a fabulous birthday present to get to celebrate with my friend. Finally!
