So what did we do today? Well, I woke to a giant Russian birthday card that Kristin had been hiding away for the last two months. We stretched, went for a run, and returned to cook our usual super-healthy breakfast (whole grain hot cereal, fruits, nuts, yogurt). We did laundry, by hand in a bucket. Hopefully our clothes will dry by tomorrow!During the day we communicated with various friends and family members via Skype, gmail chat, emails, and Facebook.
For lunch, Kristin prepared a delicious and healthy macaroni and cheese (inspired by, but nothing like, my grandmother Patsy used to make). And to top it all of, she created a raw vegan german chocolate cake. It was absolutely amazing!
Now we are winding down, finishing up a few errands, before we watch The Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Anyhow, thanks for all the emails, chats, comments, posts, VOiPs, ecards and more! Where would we be without the internet?
Our apartment is on the ground floor unfortunately, but we have floor to ceiling windows and the complex is empty! |
The fantastic cake, Russian birthday card, and custom-made silver crown. I am living like a king!
Mia wants to skype with you guys tomorrow, she SLEPT IN this morning. That was probably her birthday present to you :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!! Glad to hear Kristin treated you like a king :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Danny! Great photo. It was on a visit to Bulgaria in 1968 that I learned to love tomato, cucumber, onion, salad with feta cheese and kalamata olives. What was the best - great Bulgarian bread to dunk in the olive oil and vinegar dressing. Try it!
