A happy birthday to the uncle who used to take me fishing
... and who shares a birthday with his nibs.
We celebrated with a wild night ... home.
Baked kabocha squash filled with butter/brown sugar/nutmeg.
Spiced lamb sausages from Little City Meats on Stockton with grilled onions, egg noodles.
Dessert was (for the birthday boy -- by request) baked Granny Smith apple stuffed with butter/brown sugar/nutmeg, served warm with French vanilla ice cream and (for moi) French vanilla ice cream with a splash of (non-vintage ... not the Dow '83 sitting on the kitchen counter! not the Dow '83!) port.
Ym.
We had a very nice birthday.
We hope the uncle who used to take me fishing (and his paramour) did as well.

Bertold Brecht:
Everything changes. You can make
A fresh start with your final breath.
But what has happened has happened. And the water
You once poured into the wine cannot be
Drained off again.
