Then we went over to the 'Strand' on the other side of the island for the very best chocolate malts in the world... at a quaint little ice cream shop.
Drove from there to Houston and - gasp!!!!!!!!!!! - my wife didn't want to go shopping for a purse. (I'm relative sure the rapture may take place tonight) She did want to go to Chocolate Designs (wonderful candy place on Westheimer) because she loves their chocolate dipped strawberries... the sweetest strawberries ever with awesome chocolate on them.
'Thai Restaurant' on Westheimer (just past the Galleria) is absolutely the best I've ever eaten in my life. The coconut milk soup is so good you don't need anything else... not that it has ever stopped me before.

Well, brother, I'm officially seething with jealousy right now!! It sounds like you had a beautiful day! I on the other hand am stuck in hillbilly territory while the rest of my family is off to all points of the globe. Bitterness abounds!
My parents are in Europe, my brother and his wife left for Canada this morning (leaving me to watch the kiddies for a week, yeah!) and my daughter is in San Diego at a Youth Workers Conference!
The most exciting thing I did today is get lost in the back roads of a town I have lived in the majority of my life, looking for the Fed-EX hub!
But, I digress, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
