My Birthday 2010
I had a great birthday weekend with little to no time on the computer! Friday I met a friend for tea and made cupcakes for my birthday. I always like to get my cake done the day before so if I want, I can have cake for my birthday breakfast.
We went out to dinner Friday night, I closed the kitchen after the cupcakes were done. We went to Greenwood's and I had trout, collard greens and cheese grits. Delicious. Once home we had Lemon Meringue Cupcakes for dessert. No need to wait for breakfast!

Saturday morning I was awake early and off to Jazzercise at 7:15. If you are going to eat lots of birthday cupcakes you have to be a little practical. Once done with Jazzercise it was home for a quick breakfast and to get ready for the day.
We had decided to go to DeSoto Falls since it was such a beautiful day and I packed a picnic. I am not a cold sandwich person so my cooler had shrimp, cocktail sauce, guacamole, cheese, oranges, salad, crackers, Perrier and cupcakes.
We did the walk of 1/4 mile first to the lower falls and then the 3/4 mile walk to the upper falls. What a perfect first day of spring !





After the walk we had our lunch. We're taking a class at church on Wednesday evenings and have homework to do for that every week, so we did that sitting by the stream in the sun.
I had a very nice birthday. Today we woke up to cooler weather and rain. No outside stuff today. I have a roast planned for dinner and I'll post the recipe if we like it. This will be the first time I've cooked a tri tip cut of beef.
Now I'm going to read the paper and maybe knit a little. It's still my birthday weekend!
