It's a cruddy day to have a birthday, but not like I have much choice about it.

I am grateful, though, that I could spend it with my family at one of our favorite spots in LA (Kitchen Mouse).

Warmth, joy, happiness in my vicinity. Sadness, anger, disbelief about the world at large.

Two things can be true, and all that...

Three plates and a teal coffee mug on a wooden table. Chilaquiles, garbanzo salad, and lemon/blueberry pancake topped with blueberries and coconut whipped cream.
