33 years ago today (yes, I'm that old & proud, 'recognize') my mother was 2 weeks late with my sister & me when we decided to show up for our birthday. Thanks mom!
There are a handful of people I share my birthday with but the most important is my life long best friend, my twin sister, Jennifer. She's the best & knows me better than I know myself. Cheers to many more Penny! Happy Birthday, I love you!
PS: how great is this picnic-ready ice bag for wine & bubbly? My great friend Ashley gifted this to me after we had brunch in the west village with our bottle of wine served in a vinyl bag just like this. We thought it was genius & I still do. As a smart lady once told me, the fastest way to chill a bottle of anything (soda, wine, vodka) is an ice bath so load up a clear vinyl bag with some ice & cool water. Et voila you've got a shabby chic ice bucket that you can roll up & stick in your purse after.

| Had to include some photos of the gorgeously wrapped gifts my mother-in-law sent me in the mail. She's always on time (or a day early) with gifts & wrappings that give Martha Stewart a run for her money. Thanks Mary! You've outdone yourself in the most generous way once again. Much love! xx |
