Happy birthday! And happy thanksgiving as well! I hope you don't have to do all the cooking.

The sight filled the northern sky; the imensity of it was scarcely conceivable. As if from Heaven itself, great curtains of delicate light hung and trembled. Pale green and rose-pink, and as transparent as the most fragile fabric, and at the bottom edge a profound fiery crimson like the fires of Hell, they swung and shimmered loosely with more grace than the most skillful dancer. ~ Northern Lights

Ooh, a flower and cake and frosting wine! 1994. Heh.

I don't have to do any Thanksgiving cooking. We always go to my stepmother's house in Maryland, and we bring chocolate cake, which I buy from a local bakery. The family already has pumpkin pie, which we're not particularly fond of, hence the chocolate cake. Which other people seem to gravitate to as well...
