Last week was my birthday. I am not ashamed to admit I am 41. Yes, that means I was born in the 70s - 1971 to be exact. I am a Gemini. It usually comes as no surprise to anyone who has met me. I received a number of notes from my younger friends thanking me for "breaking it in for them". No comment. What I will say to those of you who are younger, 41 is way better than 40. I was filled with incredible dread a few days before 40 but not with 41. (I will admit since 35 I am reluctant for 5/31 to roll around but I perk right back up when the gifts start rolling in!!)
Here are a few of the goodies I received. Maybe some good ideas if you are looking for a gift for a girl woman of a certain age! Aren't I lucky?

One one of my bday cards - so true. I would prefer the LV Train Case for my make up. Just FYI for next year. |

Totally love Limoges and bone china boxes from Tiffany. This one is adorned with great NYC landmarks. |

So this nail polish really deserves a blog of its own. I just discovered it about 2 weeks ago and its AMAZING! Really, my reaction upon trying it was- "Where has this been all my life?" Apparently my friend just disoveed it too because she gave me "Fast Girls" as a gift which quick dries your nailpolish. Run don't walk to pick this up!!! |

Love this new linen Shirt from Calypso |

One of my friends always buys me a great book for my birthday. This year was no exception. I am obsessed with the pics in this book and cant wait to try some of the recipes. |

I admit I am bit afraid of candles (we had a fire in our house a few years back not from a candle but still scary) but I was thrilled to get this one which smells incredible Bob's Flower Shoppe by Trapp - even when its not lit! Also, its my lucky number, 13. |
