The Day I Turn 26

Well, I am happy to announce that as of 5 o'clock this morning, I am officially 26 years old!

Proud and delighted, ever-so-grateful for this past year and the many wonders and joys it has brought me, I am hopeful that the year ahead will be just as fabulous, and excited to discover what it holds.

I intend to spend the day at a deliciously leasurely pace, doing exclusively what I feel like doing, wearing my favorite dress of the moment, painting my toenails cherry (or maybe plum, it remains to be decided), taking the calls of the sweet friends who have marked their calendars (and/or are reading this website), dropping by my grandmother's for a kiss and a glass of champagne, and eating this succulent raspberry chocolate tart purchased especially for the occasion at Arnaud Larher's pâtisserie.

As for this evening, who know what it has in store for me?
