Chocolate Factory and Blue Moon Pizza

Okay - today is my 59th birthday - one year to the birthday I think I will have trouble with - the big 60!!!!!!!

Since it was my birthday weekend we decided to have Chocolate for dinner and pizza for dessert. I mean why not? Right? Have you ever heard of Groupon? My daughter is the Groupon Queen. She busy them for everything.

We had a chocolate bar coupon and a Blue Moon Pizza coupon. Daughter wanted to do something different so we used them in reverse order.

Those are chocolate eggs of every flavor you could imagine. Peanut butter and jelly, mint, pumpkin, vanilla, chocolate, Oreo, red velvet, everything! So he wanted ten - did I tell you he is a little spoiled, but after all it was dinner. Seriously he let us all have one and give is mom three back for a gift - so he didn't eat that many.

Aren't they pretty?

Husband had a beer with sherbert in it - peach sherbert - he said it was pretty good.
Chatty had a martini - a red velvet martini.
You know what - I have never ever had a martini in my whole entire life - this was a first. It was a red velvet martini. Cost $10 but we did have a groupon - right?
Next we went to the Blue Moon Pizza around 9 pm!
May I say it was good!
They gave the grandson a piece of dough to make something. He made it into a star. And they baked it. Yummy!
Daughter and grandson dividing the pizza.
Okay my daughter sent me this and yes it was a forward - but she said she meant it - lol - so since it is my birthday today I am accepting it as a gift.

"She can deal with stress and carry heavy burdens.
She smiles when she feels like screaming, and she sings when she feels like crying.
She cries when she's happy and laughs when she's afraid. Her love is unconditional.
There's only one thing wrong with her. She forgets what she's worth!.
L-o-v-e Y-o-u!!"
(I love you too daughter of mine.)

Oh oh I forgot what else we did for lunch. That is why we had to do the other things so late - and another Groupon - the Swan House. And yes grandson came and had chicken fingers.

This is a look at the whole house. "Traditionally known as one of the most recognized and photographed landmarks in Atlanta, Swan House is an elegant, classically styled mansion built in 1928 for the Edward H. Inman family, heirs to a cotton brokerage fortune. The mansion, designed by famed Atlanta architect Philip Trammell Shutze, provides a glimpse into the lifestyle of this Atlanta family during the 1920s and 1930s. "

At the gift store I saw something that I wanted for a couple of years - saw it on Debbie's blog. I looked and looked and looked. GS and daughter bought it for me - but I have to wait until Mother's Day. I will show you then.

I had a great 59th birthday. lol I have been celebrating for a few days now- and have a few more things yet to do! I am a lucky gal.

Thought for the day:
