Hi Shawn,


 RH> I shared a birthday with a cousin. She was quite a bit older than me
 RH> and lived out in California so I didn't see her often enough, never
 RH> shared a birthday celebration.

 SH> In my office, there are three of us who share the same birthday.  We
 SH> are always getting a free lunch on the company and a cake since there
 SH> are three of us. :)

Sweet! Since I'm self employed, I don't have any other workers to share
my birthday with. There were times when they were still home, our girls
made me a cake but they've long since gone out on their own. Steve
usually takes me out for supper and sometimes will let our server know
that it's my birthday, tho I'd rather he didn't. He gets a pumpkin roll
(used to be pumpkin pie or pumpkin cake) for his birthday cake, plus
going out somewhere. It's a low key day for both of us, tho I had a nice
surprise this year--a call from our oldest grandson.


 RH> ham will probably wait until later in the week; found a package of
 RH> lentils on the shelf so they will go into soup with the ham bone.

 SH> Nice.

Steve is gently pushing toward getting split peas for pea soup instead.
I've an eye dr. appointment this afternoon, with some grocery shopping
to follow, so will probably pick up some split peas.
