Yesterday, we celebrated my brother Bob's Fiftieth Birthday at my sister Maggie and her husband Mike's house in Parma, OH. Enjoying the festivities was my sister, Kathleen, my brothers, Tim and Joe, my niece Mandy and her husband Paul. We ate steak fajitas, rice pilaf, stuffing, corn, breadsticks, and beef rotini (My audience would understand this concept better.). Before dinner, we ate raw carrots, candy, potato chips, and pretzels. Dessert was German Chocolate Cake, Cheesecake, Rice Krispie Treats, and Edy's Vanilla and Cookies and Cream Ice Creams. The food was all delicious.
After dessert, presents were then opened. They were mostly restaurant gift cards. We will enjoy some restaurants that are not in our regular rotation. The presents were all appreciated. However, the event that will be most remembered at this party is that Kathleen's car was frozen shut. I discovered this when I was putting leftovers in her car. I was able to open her door, so I threw the food over by where I would be sitting on the ride home. Thankfully, we were able to get into her car with a little more effort than normal. After riding home, relaxation was the theme of the night. It was a fun party.
We are celebrating in our house tonight! The Pittsburgh Steelers lost to the Green Bay Packers 31-25 in Super Bowl XLV. If the Steelers had won, I would have been very unhappy.
