The last of my many awesome birthday wonder-twins.

One of my favorite things about birthdays is

decadent breakfasts...and so this morning

birthday girl Lindsay and I stepped out for some

apple pancakes and banana bread oatmeal at a little

tea shop up in Kerrisdale. The very same spot where

my friend Judy's etchings are being exhibited, actually.

Vancouver is starting to feel like a small town more and more everyday.

Saturday afternoon, I got to visit with some dear friends
in Bellingham. We had a beautiful lunch followed by some very
tasty homemade birthday cake made by Jude and Elise.
Elise's birthday and my birthday are just a couple of days apart.
After all the good treats, we spent some time painting + knitting +
browsing through some of Elise's current cool projects.
Esme supervised enthusiastically.

It was a fantastic afternoon workshop.
