Birthday Bash – Vivian Arend
On my 40th birthday I wasn't expecting great things. No surprise party, no big gifts. See, my husband had accepted a job in the Yukon, and he'd already moved north a couple months earlier to begin, leaving me with the kidlets to pack, sell the house—you know, the fun stuff. Well, he was having a [...]

Birthday Bash – Madison Chase
Madison's Birthday Memories My favorite number as a child was eight. And for some reason I thought turning eight would be positively magical. As if I was going to grow up that day. From the time I learned to count, I don't really remember when that was exactly, I waited for my eighth birthday. And [...]

Birthday Bash – NJ Walters
My favorite birthday memory is from the late nineteen eighties. My husband surprised me with tickets for The Phantom of the Opera–box seats. We were so close to everything I could feel the heat from the pyrotechnics. It was the most spectacular evening. Colm Wilkinson played the part of the Phantom and every other performance I've [...]

Happy Birthday Lissa! Thanks for inviting me to the party. I love birthdays and I think celebrating for the whole month is an excellent idea. Not to mention fun.

Birthday Bash – Cara McKenna
First and foremost, happy birthday, Lissa! I don't have any carved-in-stone traditions for my own birthday, but there's always a high-caloric treat of some kind involved. It runs the gamut from carrot cake to dinner out at my favorite Indian restaurant, to a wine-fueled evening at my relatives' place. This last year my husband took [...]
