40th Bday in Quarantine
So, First I’ll say that it’s a blessing to be in good health during this time, but it still sucks that we had to celebrate my husband’s 40th Be-day in quarantine. I had all these awesome things planned, but “rona” said nahhh! not this year for a lot of us.
I thought to myself, what can I do to still make it special? Luckily, I came up with a few special surprises that made his day special after all. From April 30th until May 5th I made sure to get a few of his favorite things to smooth over the fact that we wouldn’t be out partying with friends. Here’s the breakdown of our “Be-day” Food Tour!
Thursday: So Delicious cashew milk ice cream with salted caramel clusters is so indulgent and delicious! (Found at Target and Kroger)
Friday: Sunrise Memphis http://sunrise901.com/ for a to-go brunch with mimosas, on a Friday… It’s 5’o clock somewhere.
Friday Evening: City Tasting Tours virtual dinner https://www.citytastingtours.com/ . Her package comes with food prepared by local businesses. We got an appetizer sampler, dinner from Rizzos and dessert from Primas Bakery & boutique.
Saturday: Kitchen Guru Catering prepared a fantastic meal! Grilled Trippletail with crawfish Dorothy sauce, shrimp, butter potatoes and asparagus. It was slap yo momma good! https://kitchengurucatering.com/
Sunday, we made one of our favorite dishes (roast beef with veggies) and spent some quality time together. I managed to coordinate a compiled birthday message from friends and family that he watched the morning of. Later that day. he was surprised with a few bottles of his favorite scotch from a few friends which was the icing on the cake.
It wasn’t the most ideal birthday celebration, but it was still, absolutely special.
