Mike's Birthday Celebration at Home

We had a nice evening at home last night celebrating Mike's birthday. We started with gin and tonics while we wrapped Vietnamese shrimp spring rolls. He was able to talk to both daughters and granddaughter Sofia which were the best gifts he could receive. He loves rhubarb pie so I preordered one from Polly's pies and he loved it. He opened his gifts. Aria, Daniele and Sofia gave him a biography on Oliver Sachs, one of Mike's favorite authors and I gave him another book "Christ stopped at Eboli" and a tshirt featuring his favorite thrill ride at Euclid park an amusement center which doesn't exist anymore. Athena sent a lovely painting she did of Mike herding goats at Chianti Cashmere Farm in Italy. We ended the night eating pie and ice cream and watching the Netflix series "Fleabag". Mike also read everyone's birthday wishes on Facebook. I printed them out for him. He was very touched by all your comments so thank you for your nice thoughts.
