Not sure what it is, but I really like to celebrate my birthday. This year for my 35th, I was surrounded by friends and family. It couldn't have been better.The weekend before my birthday, I went to my parents house to go shopping with my mom and have a birthday dinner with them. Mom and I had a blast at the Rockaway Mall.
I actually miss having a car to pile packages into and to drive from store to store. Also, the stores are so much neater and less crowded than in New York City. I got a lot done. After that, we ate a delicious dinner of flank steak with olives (one of my faves) and they surprised me with the hazelnut cake from the Gaston Avenue Bakery that my grandmother used to have for me.
I took my birthday off from work to ensure that I wouldn't stay late. That night a bunch of people came over for "high wine," which includes lots of appetizers and wine. Pete and Liz came by and met everyone. It was excellent!
On Saturday, we were at Entwine, a wine bar in the West Village, for the final party. I decided to wear my dress and my red Target Zac Posen with the five-inch, black high heels that Teva helped me to pick out. A bunch of people showed up and we had so much fun. After Entwine, a couple of us went dancing at Monster until the wee hours. All in all a perfect birthday!
