I'm a firm believer that it's the little magic moments that truly matter most. The last few days have been overflowing with them. I am a very happy Birthday Girl.
Southern California just experienced its 12th atmospheric river. A great reminder of the need for a storm to produce a rainbow was very evident! I 💙 rainbows.After running errands with Steve's Mom, we had lunch at the Windmill Food Hall (our first). We were greeted with this very appropriate reminder... "Never be afraid to reinvent yourself!"This Carlsbad landmark was built in 1981 as Andersen's Pea Soup Restaurant. It was the company's fourth location and it closed five short years later. After changing hands, many times, this 14 vendor food court seems to be the ticket. It was hopping when we were there on a Wednesday.
Later that night, we met up with David and Karen for fun at Oceanside's Orfila Winery.That delightful catch up was followed by dessert at Parlor Doughnuts.I abstained from devouring a doughnut because I had a date with Suzanne at The Crafted Scone.This new Temecula treasure was worth the wait.With a very cool environment and delicious pastries (not to mention the exceptional company), I know this is a place that will be on my must visit again list!Flowers from Lori, numerous birthday cards via the USPS, and a long lost postcard from Italy (mailed in January) have all been a part of this birthday month's magical moments AND there are still six more days to go!
"Your birthday is the beginning of your own personal new year... each new birthday is a chance to begin again, to start over, to take a new grip on life... It is a time to toss old hatreds, resentments, grudges, and fears into the wastebasket of life; a time to forgive and forget, a time to stretch your soul...It is a time to dust off your dreams and shine up your ideals." ~Wilferd A. Peterson
