teen birthday

hi everyone. i am busy. really busy. with lots of shopping, wrapping, grocery shopping and cooking. crepes with caramelized apples are required for breakfast (before 7 am i might add, that's the tricky part), chinese chicken salad with homemade asian pickles and japanese rice for dinner, and chocolate souffle for dessert. all part of a special teenage birthday. good fun. enjoying the thaw today. thinking of spring (already). more color for you next week. happy weekend to you. xo, g
