A surprise birthday for Ms. Heyduke…

Yesterday was Ms. Heyduke’s birthday and we had planned a quiet uneventful day of lounging at the beach followed by a nice home cooked dinner – of course her choice. But alas that was only what Ms. Heyduke thought we were going to do…

I have always done so and will apparently do so for the rest of my life as I believe that I must have been cursed in a previous life. Then at a more reasonable hour I wake Sharon unless she has already gotten up and then we start the day with some freshly brewed coffee. I was preparing to make us breakfast when the call came… What call? you say… The call from my daughter who was driving to Myrtle Beach to surprise her mother with a visit on her birthday!!!

As I walked in Sharon was helping me by cooking the home made tortillas I had made and then she looked up and shrieked a happy and loud squeal of glee… Our baby girl had come to surprise her mama on her birthday and that was the best gift she could give to her.

I cooked us up some home made clam chowder and followed it up with some panko fried shrimp and fish along with some fried mushrooms and onion rings… to make it just a bit healthy we also baked some sweet potato fries for another side… What a great all you can eat feast we had and a happy birthday was had by Ms. Heyduke. To top it all off a birthday call from our son and one of her best friends made it an even better day…

Happy Birthday Sharon!!! Hope you enjoyed it because tomorrow is a moving day and we will make our way over to Charleston, SC for a wee bit…
