Best Birthday Ever?

Yesterday was my 50th birthday, in honor of which my family conspired across continents to fete me with one of the best meals of my life.

Better than a new PS3, Wii, or even a (gasp) new computer, I was gifted with a house full of laughter and aromas of which the most discriminating gourmand would relish.

My sister Danette in Ireland provided the menu suggestions and recipes, while my sister Diane, daughter Kira, and partner Amy spent the better part of the day cooking a meal that could only be described as a phenomenal success.

Thanks to everyone for making a milestone event so memorable.

I've added photos of the event to a previous Flickr birthday set (it appears that I've reached the maximum number of sets for a free account).
UPDATE: My good friend Paleck has graciously purchased a Flickr Pro account for me in honor of my birthday, so now I have limitless Flickr capabilities. Thanks, Paleck!
