Just reading what you ate made me hungry. You should write for some food magazine articles or something.
Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote wonderful descriptions of the food she ate over the course of her life and that is what appealed to me and many other readers in her Little House series. I would skip through all the Libertarian BS her daughter Rose Wilder Lane stuck in the books and go right to the family's meals.

I'm glad your birthday was great, my friend's 76 birthday was yesterday and she had a ton of tasty treats all,day and night.
