One thing is for certain, every year at the end of August, our family gathers together to celebrate Zsa Zsa's birthday. You could set your watch by it. Zsa Zsa just loves the fact that we all get together and have a family party in her honor. And, the day wouldn't be complete without at least one proclaimation of "Happy Birthday to Me!". It's actually very cute how much she just loves this day and I think her love for parties, celebrations, gift giving and time with family is what has instilled that same love in me and LaLa.
This year, the weather complied and our celebration consisted of a lazy afternoon together capped off by a BIG low country boil. A fam favorite ... the low country boil consisted of plenty of crab legs, shrimp, sausage, corn and potatoes. Just when we thought we didn't have any more room after the delish meal, we indulged in a homemade almond cake compliments of moi and ice cream.
