Brithday Celebration

First of all, it was wonderful to hear from all of you (and I mean all of you) on my birthday, thanks for checking in. I sound like my mother, but hearing your voices was the best present ever. Kudos to Malky for buying me a lovely pair of earrings before Chanukah and hiding them with Bracha until yesterday - very clever (and very sparkly!).
So, last night, Ta took me and the girls out to eat in Boston (keeping with the tradition that if your Hebrew birthday falls on a legal holiday, it is a siman that you should go out to eat!). We went to Ta'am China, not "Tom" China like the girls thought, they could not figure out the sign! We actually had to wait in line for a table - another Kosofsky family tradition I guess. We had a tasty Chinese meal, complete with forture cookies and Chinese tea. I ordered the pu pu platter for Bryna and Chana, it was very neat with an assortment of egg rolls, chicken wings, chicken nuggets and beef sticks served with a little grill in the middle, they enjoyed roasting their food.
We stopped at the Prus household on our way back and all in all, a lovely evening.
Have a great day, mucho gusto!
