...It was my birthday, one of the round numbers, one of the ones that mean something I forget which one. My sister Katherine and her husband and my sister Elizabeth took me out to dinner at Bentara for said birthday. My birthday is December 1, and it was quite warm for December. As we sat waiting for our appetizers and drinks at our table, I Made a call moment about the warm weather and thanked “global warming”.
