On the day of my birth, I went out to sushi (my absolute fave.. and still raw!)with 2 of my sisters, 2 of my nephews, and my Momma and Dad. Just so you know.. that isn't even half of my family.
I was also checking out this well recommended sushi place for a client meeting I have coming up..
We had the best time.. laughing at nothing.. harmonizing to the birthday song.. and eating some good food. They even gave us our desserts for free.. Isn't that too cool?? My parents weren't brave enough to try the sushi, but they did fill up on tempura and teriyaki. :) Here are just the girls (and we are missing a sister!!)
Wait.. Fried Ice Cream and Banana's Foster isn't raw!!?? WHAT!!... It has bananas....
Yeah.. I didn't stick to my raw plan that day. ;)
This place had the coolest walls.. I just felt like showing you all. :) I wonder if Todd would let me put this in our bedroom.. Can't you just see this guy over our bed.. protecting us while we sleep....
No?
I also had the absolute delight of not having to cook (or un-cook for me) a single meal that day!
Sidenote time... I love to cook, but when you prepare meals for 2-4 people on a daily basis, 3 times a day, for over 10 years.. It gets a little tedious. :)
Umm.. Can I get a witness??
Anyone???
Thanks to all who made my birthday such a special day. I mean it when I say that I felt very loved and celebrated. :) Big hugs to you all!!

Thanks for visiting and commenting on my blog today! And Happy Belated Birthday to you! We moved here from San Diego (actually PB), oh how I miss it so! Love the food shots you took at your dinner, food photography is so much fun (and cooperative!).
What a beautiful picture. Dad and I had a glorious time. Wasn't it fun how everyone got quiet to listen to our rendition of Happy Birthday? I feel the need to explain how being brave and trying sushi. Being brave has nothing to do with it. My father used to concoct the weirdest meals when I was young. He loved oysters on the half shell and forced me to swallow one once. He made stew from clams Uncle Dave and I dug up on the beach that was under our house. (We lived on a house with stilts; had a pier that went out into Mission Bay.) The stew was not very good, but I could never say I didn't like something unless I had tried it once. Well, I tried it, once! And that's the truth. :)
Happy Belated birthday!!! It looks like it was so much fun!
OMG! You made that food look so yummy that I WUZ goin' to bed, but now my boody is headed toward the kitchen. Awesome pics!
