That is such a great group of friends to get together with! Especially the one with the cooking skills! Oh, yes! :)
Friendship is hard work and then again, it's pretty easy. Once a year is not good enough to keep it going. Every few months, I try to touch base with people who have made an impact on me and who I want to keep in contact with.
Friends.
Love that you do the January birthdays. That is so very cool and yes! Often looked over.
The cheesecake looks divine, but, I love cheesecake and yes !! Americans like their beef medium raw or well done shoeleather. I don't understand the shoeleather, it ruins the meat!
However, live and let live. Have a great day!
