twenty six

it's my birthday day! and thanks to facebook, several people have already wished me a happy birthday who might not have otherwise known (or at least remembered). of course, my favorite birthday wish came from my wife, but she's got the distinct advantage of, well, being my wife :]

we're going to celebrate tonight at george's garage, which is a snazzy little place in downtown durham. i've never been, but by the looks of the menu, i'll enjoy it. i'm sure i'll also manage to sneak in a few more bites of my homemade birthday cake at some point, too. it's our own little spin on my grandmother's famous coconut cake. we didn't mean to spin it, but since we confused pina colada mix for cream of coconut, it's got an interesting (but good!) little twist of pineapple. isn't that how it goes? aren't all great recipes accidents?

unfortunately, i'll be spending a third of my birthday day at work. back to the grindstone...
