Birthday & Biscotti

Yesterday was my birthday.  Denis and the girls got me a lovely mother’s necklace, and we went out to the local hibachi place for dinner with my family.  The girls gave me the best present ever by behaving like angels at the restaurant.  Anna was initially horrified by the giant flames, until she saw the enormous pile of rice the chef was going to cook…then she got really, really excited!  Carolyn was duly impressed by the egg tricks.

Today Carrie and I went to Dan & Genevra’s new house to make biscotti.  They are way, way tastier than store-bought biscotti!  Carrie loves to help cook and bake!
