Happy Birthday!

Thursday was my birthday and Craig took me whale watching to celebrate.  Before we could set out, however, he needed to prepare delicious sandwiches to eat on the boat.  He used a good baguette from Seven Stars, my favorite bakery, and filled it with prosciutto, chevre, roasted red peppers, red onion, and roasted red pepper dressing.  They were delicious and all the other whale watchers swooned in envy.

We worked up an appetite watching all those whales swim around, so we found a coffee shop on Beacon hill to relax in.  The lemon blueberry tart was so good, very lemony and not too sweet.
For dinner we met Cora and Allen at Jacob Wirth's in the Theater District.  I feel too weird taking pictures in restaurants, but that place is great!  A bajillion beers, mainly imports, pretty good prices, and great food.  Craig and Allen had the smoked pork chop, which came on some delicious red cabbage, Cora had the boursin burger, and I had crabcakes and gazpacho.  Everything was delicious!  What a great birthday.
