It's My Birthday! I'm taking the Day Off!

Today is my 40th birthday!  Wow, time really flies, lol!  I have to say, don't be afraid of 40 - I am a stronger, happier person today than I've been any time in my life.  I'm still making new friends and having new beginnings and having a blast doing it.

I tell you, my family has spoiled me rotten already!  From my mom I got a huge roasting pan and an electric skillet that I've been wanting forever!  My sister got me two Pagan books that are just awesome!  Over the last month or so, my husband has gotten me a wicked awesome camera, a smaller, compact camera to keep in my purse, a freaking big red KitchenAid mixer (!!!) and last night he came home with a Nook for me!!  I could not have been more surprised!!  My parents-in-law gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card to go along with it.  I don't think I've been this completely spoiled on a birthday since I was a little kid.  I might have to turn 40 again next year, lol!!

In blog news, we are nearing the end of February, and the End of Retro Cooking Month - make sure to get your entries into all the giveaways that will end the last day of February!!

Have a great day!
