A thought on the birthday

[katriona_s]

Yeaterday was my birthday :)

I have worked at home but I didn‘t want to spend the day just for my job so took a half day off in the aftrnoon and went out with mother. We went to my favorite tearoom in towncentre and enjoyed nice cakes and pot of tea :)



Then we strolled on a nice shopping street and found a nice pair of shoes for mother, then went to a small but nice Turkish restaurant for supper. It’s the first time for mother to try the Turkish cuisine and she liked it! But she is late in her 80s and seemed to be a bit tired, so I took a taxi outside of the restaurant and came home. It was a nice birthday! :D

And. Usually I don’t go out with mother like this, frankly, yesterday I was going out with my friend K. But 2 days ago K’s mother went into the hospital suddenly and K was busy and quite anxious to take care of her mother or talk with the doctors etc, no time to enjoy with a friend, of course. K’s mother is also late on her 80s, I think. And I think, how fortunate I am to be able to enjoy outing with mother who is quite fit for her age at the moment…

I'm glad you have a delicious tea and Turkish dinner on your birthday although your friend couldn't join you. I love Turkish and other middle eastern cuisine. :)

Yes, I'm lucky to live in Yokohama where we have many restaurants of ethnic cuisine.
