Belated Birthdays Brunch
Noel and Mark were kind enough to throw us a belated brunch for our birthdays, so we enjoyed ourselves in their amazing backyard.
Mark made a quiche and pastries and we had coffee and yellow beet with feta. We brought some bubbly and a fruit salad with granola and yogurt.

Perfect Barbra Gift
How amazing is Teena, who gifted me the exact Barbra Streisand doll in a sailor suit that I had inches from where the fire started in my home? Just like the one I had for twenty years, this one was still in the box! We had to guess a number from the waiter and I lost, so she ended up getting our amazing lunch for us at Provisions in Vallejo with her husband, J.D. I had to hold back tears at the perfection of this gift, just a few weeks before my birthday.
You can only imagine the number of sailor suits I made sure that my daughter, Alexandra, wore. Below is a picture of Alex when she is two (thirty years ago) wearing one of those sailor suits in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan. I remember her walking in public for one of the first times in this photo and she was such a sight to behold that an entire busload of tourists were fixated on her.
