My brother
Pete is visiting from White Rock BC and since three of us have our birthdays so close together, Mom decided to have a
birthday party for all three of us here in Waterloo. I'm holding the black forest cake with
Mike at my right and Pete on my left. (Is that a balloon growing out of my head?) There are a total of 14 family members here, including all the kids. Mom put together a wonderful spread including ham and potato salad and Mike's wife, Lorrie made sushi.
Melbah Toasty made her famous chick pea Indian Currie. Since I just got back from India this dish made me feel nostalgic. I even taught my family to do the head 'wobble' that you use when speaking about Indian food. It's great to be part of a family who genuinely like being together and sharing, without feeling any kind of competition; although there is the one bone of contention with the others. They all know (but don't really want to admit) that I am
Mom's favorite. Happy birthday to Us!
