I did go out and play in the snow but the snow wouldn't pack for anything so snowmen didn't happen. But Pumpkin did lose her boot in the snow and didn't realize it until her foot was soaking wet, needless to say, it was then time to go inside. I stayed out and cleared a path to and around the car. then poured down some ice-melt to keep it from getting too slick. It was fun being out in the snow.
Jeeves took me out for dinner to Stir Crazy, my favorite restaurant and then we went to the theater and saw Tangled. We sort of have this tradition of going to see animated movies on special date nights, birthdays, anniversaries, etc. Tangled was so cute, and there was singing!!! I miss the singing in Disney movies and this was a welcome surprise.
I had a huge plate of Szechuan Chicken with broccoli and rice noodles for dinner and triple happiness cake for dessert.
The cake was heavenly and it came with two large puffs of very vanilla-y whipped cream, *swoon* I was going to for-go dessert, but I do that all the time and if you can't have cake on your birthday, when can you? Right? so I enjoyed every bite.
Then we came home and I went to bed early, all in all it was a great day. So many people took time out of their day to wish me happy birthday, I felt very loved. Mutti is going to take me shopping this weekend and I get to pick out a new outfit for a present, we are going to Trivia night tonight and on Sunday I'm going out with my girl friends on a brewery tour with a half hour of free booze at the end! This is going to be the most awesome weekend.
My tailbone no longer hurts and I am not coughing anymore so Monday will begin a one week, re-kick start to the weight loss. I am going to spend one hour in the gym every day and I'm going to keep my calories below 1200 everyday for one week. I've done this before and lost as many as 5 pounds in a week. Hopefully that will happen again

I love Stir Crazy! Have you tried Hu Hot? There's one on Olive in Creve Coeur--I love that one.
Glad you had a good time!
So happy you're having an awesome birthday weekend.
That snow makes me miss home. (I'm from MO, living in SOUTH Tx.)
Glad your cough is gone and your booty feels better!
glad you had such a great bday!! looking forward to seeing you for the brew tour... and I second the Hu Hot recommendation from your friend above. there's another one on Olive, further west near the intersection of Olive & Woods Mill and it's just called "Mongolian BBQ" or something like that but they do the same thing like Hu Hot plus an all-you-can-eat buffet of Chinese & American foods... we do that for lunch w/ the co-workers on 'special occasions':)
That cake looks amazing! And you're right, if you can't indulge a little for your bday when can you!?!? Happy birthday! Glad you had a good night out. :)
Happy birthday!
