Ben's Birthday


Yesterday was a beautiful day here in more ways than one. Oh, as usual I went off to the Sonshine Lunch Club (our local soup kitchen) and worked from 08.30-13.30. As usual I met the same wonderful group of people who volunteer there and we had a good time serving the clients and spending time with each other and them.
The day was gorgeous with sunshine and a light breeze.
However, the day came to a marvellous end when we celebrated Ben's birthday with him, his 38th. He and Josée, along with Tim, Charlotte and Oliver and another friend of the family came for dinner at our home. It was Ben's choice that we eat a Japanese meal for his birthday. Though Cynthia is a brilliant cook, and I quite like to dabble in the culinary arts, we brought the food in. It was delicious. We shared a bottle of wine and the conversation was good.
What rounded the evening and the whole day off perfectly was we were all able to watch a solid win by our Vancouver Canucks as they beat the Anaheim Ducks by 4-1! Way to go Ben and way to go Canucks!
