FIVE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS

 The residents of our village organise a Happy Hour every Friday night. Everyone brings their own nibblies and drinks. When it is someone's birthday they often have a birthday cake too. Last Friday there were five birthdays to celebrate. Liz who turned eighty sent a message out saying don't bring any nibblies this week as she was going to provide a grazing board big enough for everyone. 

Liz and her amazing grazing board.

    What a great way for Liz to spend money, giving many people a simple pleasure. I must keep this in mind for my old age.

    Happy birthday to all. The Friday night happy hour sounds like a fun time. The charcuterie boards have become very popular, it looks yummy. Take care, have a great day and a happy new week!

    In a residential situation like that the year must be a constant round of birthday parties - almost like being back at primary school! Everyone seems to be having such a good time.
