Birthday Weekend Wrap-Up

My birthday may have fallen on a short day, but the only thing it was short of was time. Thanks to my wonderful husband, I had a fantastic birthday weekend.

Friday

I stayed at work late on Friday to say goodbye to the woman who hired me and until Friday was my supervisor. She has moved on to new opportunities and created a few of them for me as well. Brad ended up ordering Chinese for me to pick up on the way home for dinner.

When I got home, there were roses waiting for me and Stella Artois in the fridge. Stella + sesame chicken + the couch made for a nice low-key evening.

Saturday

Being the horrible birthday girl that I am, I had planned to run errands on Saturday. Brad had other plans. He treated me to breakfast and let me squeeze in on errand before treating me to a surprise afternoon.

I was instructed to dress nicely and wear comfortable shoes. Our afternoon birthday adventure included three official stops and a Starbucks break.

Stop #1: Orchid Mania at the Cleveland Botanical Garden

Stop #2: Dinner at L’Albatros

Stop #3: Dessert at Coquette Patisserie

The entire adventure took place in University Circle, a very walkable neighborhood that also offered excellent access to EV charging for the Volt.

And now to the picture part of the story:

Sunday

My mom and her husband came to visit on my birthday and we had a nice afternoon.

How was your weekend?
