three things that make my aunt karen's birthday special:
1. it's my aunt karen. the wonderful aunt with the beautiful cats who always bought us books for christmas and took us to volunteer at the cat shelter. she had the cats soundtrack and a huge, high bed with brass detailing. she took me to london when i was 15 and we had a jolly good time. she's been all over the world and has exposed brick in her house - i think we all aspire to a life like that.
2. it's also my half birthday. i like this connection.
3. IT'S THE BEST DINNER IN THE WORLD. there is a set dinner for aunt karen's birthday and it is only created once a year, like thanksgiving. it consists of stuffed flank steak, twice baked potatoes, butterhorn rolls, some vegetable, and devil's delight for dessert. it is worth driving four hours in one day to enjoy this dinner. it blows my mind with it's amazingness. and it is absolutely fitting that it only be served on the birthday of an amazing lady.
question for the audience: what's your birthday meal? death row meal? most eaten meal?
