Today is Brigid's birthday

HA! She asked me for an omelette pan, which I'm happy to get her (got two actually) since I like omelettes.

Brigid, two months ago, near Bear Mountain

 

Past history on gifts to Brigid:

When we were both living in Jamaica (which is where I met Brigid - we were both teaching in different schools in Mandeville, JA), I went off the Island in the summer of '78 (we met February 17th, 1978, at a party at my house {that she crashed} although I'd seen her around town prior to this and asked about her {was told she had a boyfriend at the bottom of Shooter's HIll, which turned out to not be true [I think]}.

Anyway, I wrote her over the summer (1978 - before email) and asked what I could bring back for her. She wrote back asking me for a "wok" - which I had no idea what it was - and not to buy a junky or cheap wok but a really good, high quality one. So I got some advice and brought back a really, really, good one.

And it worked out very well for me - Brigid still uses it and it woks up great food!

You are the soul of serenity in an insane world, dear Brigid. For all you do so generously for us all, Happy Birthday and many blessings - or in the words of our Muppet friends (and in light of Tom's gift) - woka, woka!
