It's (Still) All About Me

Most of you know that birthdays in the Watts' household are not simply a one-day affair in which your age increases by one. The parties can last for weeks--sometimes even a month. So, it will come as no surprise that we had yet another birthday party for me tonight. This one at home, with just the four of us. Jeff cooked dinner--which was nice enough, but what he made was fantastic. He prepared brie cheese with wine jelly for an appetizer and then went completely overboard with lobster, twice-baked potatoes and steamed broccoli for the main course. And since calories don't count when you are celebrating a birthday, there was plenty of butter to go around. It was fabulous! Now he has gone to get me a Chai Latte from my favorite place. If this treatment keeps up, I may have to change my views on turning thirty next year!
