A Perfect Day

Birthday Cake from Mum

It was a day that started with spending some time with my sister who came all the way from Los Angeles.

Then I went to my first yoga class in three months with one of my very dearest friends.

My family came to the house for a simple lunch of quiche and salad.

My Mum brought dessert. The birthday cake that she has been making for me since I was a little girl. The same cake I ask for every year. Angel-food cake with raspberry filling, iced with raspberry whipping cream and dotted with fresh, whole raspberries on the top. I love this cake. I love that my Mum makes it for me. Every year.

After lunch we found out that my 99 year old Baba (grandma) was being released from the hospital today after suffering a heart attack last Thursday night. She is now back in her little apartment right next door to our house. What a gift.

This evening my husband and I our rode bikes to a family dinner out at one of our favourite restaurants. Riding home the sky was pink and filled with wispy clouds.

Now it is time for clean pj’s and a bit of reading and turning out the light before 10 pm.

It was a perfect day. Hope your day was perfect too.
