The Actual Birthday Day

As planned, we walked to the cafe at 11 o'clock for coffee and breakfast sandwiches. We enjoyed the S'Mores coffee blend as we waited for our breakfast to appear. Meanwhile, I did my standard thing and took a quick portrait of my lady friend.


Time elapsed with no breakfast appearing, so after just about draining our coffees, I sauntered over to the counter to ask the young lady if she might possibly have forgotten the breakfast sandwiches. Yes indeedy, she had forgotten our order in the busyness, especially having been left on her own for a spell. About 10 minutes later, she delivered them — to the wrong table! Said table was within my view, so I was able to call out as the server began to walk away as the temporary recipients sat in bewilderment before also beginning to call out.

Once again, there were apologies. Once again, it was okay. 

After a lazy afternoon, we made our way over to the kids' for the usual family get-together for gifts, pizza and cake.





Sue made a little collage. Yes, she did want some Legos for her photography. Shauna sourced some from online. I hadn't a clue about how to obtain Legos.


A few crowd shots. :)

  3. The server was a bit over her head, I'd say. I'm glad the day went well otherwise. Sue has such stylish hair, very chick!
