I'm blogging at the end of a very long day. I've been up for almost 22 hours now. Tonight we hosted a surprise birthday party for Ray. It was a pure delight. He had no idea and was thoroughly pleased with a houseful of friends and rich desserts. I realize this is the perfect arrangement, me throwing surprise parties for Ray. He loves surprises. I love anticipating things, planning, scheming, plotting, cooking, and creating a wonderful evening of great food & friends enjoying it all. I'm having a bliss hangover.
And if you weren't with us this evening, you should know we had perfect weather in which to enjoy our quintessentially American front porch, freshly scrubbed and adorned with cafe lights, purple potted flowers and candles, we ate tiramisu, chocolate cheesecake, key lime pie, baked brie with apples, and strawberries, we had fresh roasted coffee and three kinds of dessert wine (thank you Kathleen for your contribution), lots of laughter and good jokes (many told by the Titus himself). It was an evening when our house held the sounds and tastes and smells of the life we love. We are very blessed with wonderful friends and very glad to have Ray as a friend, father, and loving partner.
