We gathered at Jen's beautiful home to celebrate three August birthdays: Carrie's, Liz's, and mine. There was amazing Thai food accompanied by several varietals, including the great Frisch Riesling provided by Brigette.
Val brought a very special, inconvenient-to-procure cake, which was incredibly delicious and warmly welcomed. In the excitement, she started blowing out the candles for us. She's just full service!
There were some good-natured scuffles over some coveted handbags and no less than three pairs of girlfriendy feet sported hot and enviable shoes. (I'm especially thinking of you, Erica. Polka dots!)
A few candles were still lit, so the birthday girls blew them out together and made many wishes, most probably involved more wine. Mine definitely involved more Thai food and fervent hopes that there'd be plenty of cake for seconds and maybe thirds!
Brigette's beautiful Lauren looked on and didn't seem entirely convinced we'd spent our wishes wisely.
But even Lauren concurred that we're very lucky women, all of us so grateful to have such a wonderful, supportive group of bon vivants as dear friends. It even looks like she became a touch verklempt thinking about it.
