It's My Birthday Month!


I know that I shouldn't get this excited about my birthday anymore, but I still do! This month is busier than ever and I'm trying to catch my breath. It's time for us Virgos to celebrate!

Finally, I was able to try this recipe for Peach Cupcakes with Brown Sugar Frosting. What a treat! I did some major adapting, but they were still wonderful.


I received my first birthday card from L, one of my best friends. We've been friends since we met on the first day of college. She is two weeks younger than me and will never let me forget it!

This card is so pretty and was such a nice surprise, because I wasn't expecting one so early. Thank you L!

My birthday wish is to raise $500.00 for the Brockton Area Arc. Funding has been cut and their services are badly needed. They are such a wonderful organization and some really incredible people work there. I'm saying a little prayer.

Happy Month-Long Birthday! September is a nice month, too. Not too warm every day, and it's usually a sunny one (here, at least). Hope you can do something a little special every day.

I think you should always feel excited for your birthday. Why not? For me, I, too, don't ask for gifts but instead ask folks to donate to a favorite cause of mine, the Boston Area Rape Crisis Center. Happy birthday!

josephine - Thank you! We're going to have such a blast! ; )

rhea - That's a really good cause. Hopefully you've had some great results. At the very least, it's some good karma. And thank you for the birthday wishes! ; )
