Jane's birthday

My lovely wife turned 57 last week. She keeps getting better every year!

We did not do too much for the special day. I got her some chocolates and coffee, and we went out for both breakfast and supper - which is quite the feat what with covid and all! We also took a nice walk in the park because the weather was beautiful all weekend (in the 50s on her birthday, and up to 63f on Sunday!).

Sunday night we went out to the Feipel farm and celebrated both Jane and Scott's birthdays with a scrumptious lasagna that Carrie made.

On her birthday we tried a new place (to us) for supper. We've always wanted to go there because we've heard good things, and it is downtown near where we both work. Nawa is a locally-owned restaurant featuring culinary influences from Thailand, Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia and elsewhere in Asia. The name literally means "new beginning" in Thai, so it was the perfect place for a birthday celebration! It did not disappoint!!

The place was nostalgically decorated with a "casual classy" feel to it, and the food was sooooo good. Jane got the Pad Thai Me Up, and I got crazy and tried the Massaman Curry. I'm not usually adventurous when it comes to food, but I LOVED it! They were even kind enough to give us a huge piece of chocolate-covered cheesecake on the house! This is a pic of my plate.

 

So, while it wasn't a very eventful day, I think she was happy enough. Now on to another year! Hopefully this will be much less eventful than the past one.
