Happy 50th Birthday

On June 1st, just two days ago, my friend Muff would have turned 50.
She deserved to turn a half-century, and it chaps my old hide that she isn't here to celebrate with her family and friends.
Yes, I still miss her, and I was thinking that I would have enjoyed talking to her over the phone on June 1, and joking about how old we are getting, and how set in our ways.
I would have loved to have sent her a gift, some Irish Breakfast tea, or a wool shawl,perhaps.
Since this is National Doughnut Day, we stopped by Mighty O Doughnuts near Greenlake in Seattle, and I got 8 vegan doughnuts,and I took two of them into Nicks schoolroom to share with his teacher, Mr Finch, who then insisted that two of his students eat them.
I know that Muff loved doughnuts and would probably have had a nice chocolate glazed if she had been here with me today.
So I raise my doughnut high and say, "Belated Happy Birthday, beloved best friend!"
May you have all the treats you could ever want in heaven.
Love,
DeAnn
