Happy Birthday to me!!

 

I had a lovely birthday!  Quiet day at the yarn shop.  Dinner out.  Yay!  No cooking!  A day spent with people I love and quiet evening to read and knit!!

The day before my birthday John asked me what I wanted for my birthday.  If you know John,  you know that he is NOT a shopper, gift buyer kind of guy.  I rarely receive a wrapped gift for special occasions.  He does at times come home with something that he knows I would like or will use.  Space heater for my unheated studio!! 

 This year I told him about my NEED for a Vitamix blender.  He asked me two questions. "Will you use it?"  Yes!!  I told him about the smoothies i would make, nut butters and flours I would create.  Then "does it come in colors?  Can 
you get a red one?  I didn't know the answer for 
this one.  I did some research.  Yes, a few models come in red.  The more I read about this amazing appliance the more I knew I NEEDED this.  

As we headed out to dinner John asked me where he could find a Vitamix.   I happily told him that I had taken care of it.  A few minutes with my i-pad and debit card and his birthday shopping was done!!  He appreciated my efficiency and didnt even blink at the price.  He made a comment about  "importance of having quality tools."   This is something I will use in my "job" of feeding us healthy, nutritious foods.  I feel like I just bought a fun new toy to play with!!  

My husband bought me an appliance for my birthday and I couln't be more excited!!!!!
Happy Birthday to me!!!
