Thirtysomething


I can still remember the theme tune for Thirtysomething. Yip, it's stuck there in the memory bank of great 80s show tunes. Golden Girls, Who's The Boss, MacGuyver, Dallas...

Thirthysomething's tune, however, is the only thing I can remember about that show as it fell into the "grown-up" genre. I'm almost tempted to download the series now that I'm old enough to watch it. Apparently I'm a grown-up now (well supposed to be)!

That doesn't mean I'm too old for cupcakes, though. And my rather awesome husband impressed me with these masterpieces to celebrate my introduction into thirtysomethingness.




The other thing that's thirtysomething (weeks) is our bump! We had our final scan last week and we're on countdown now with about eight weeks to go. We can't wait!

Le Bonheur

I do wonder what Samuel Johnson was thinking when he said that when a man is tired of London he is tired of life. He really should have hopped aboard the speediest ship to Paris. Now I'm not going to pit the Eiffel Tower against Big Ben, the Seine against the Thames, Versailles against Buckingham, ale against a good red, or cheddar against brie, but Paris is just dreamy in the springtime.

The sad fact that I had to tear my gaze away from the vino and fromage selections on every menu aside, it was the perfect place to enjoy a rendezvous for two before 'Thumper' arrives, kicking and screaming.
