June 12, 2007 - What I thought was going to be a boring birthday, bypassed again with the shuffle of interns, project trips, and end of school, turned out to be a very wonderful and relaxing day. It started the night before with ice cream and a royal invitation. I met two of our cool interns at La Patisserie and had a cherry cream puff and African Tea. From there, we went to the office, where I laid on the couch and read a book. Then Janet, a staff member, took me to Ketch the Sun restaurant. Then I returned to the office where I drank more tea (this time British) while I waited for our ladies Bible study to begin. After Bible study, I went home where I was met by my mom who made sushi with me - YUM!!! - and Chad who had already made bulgolgi (Korean BBQ) and rice. It was topped off with a childhood favorite, cherries jubilee, made by my mom. No one else had ever had it besides me and my mom. It was cool to see the kids eyes light up.
