Happiest of birthdays Kim - What a rich and succulent list - life dripping down your chin and you licking up every tasty drop. You may have inspired me and lucky me that my list gets to be longer! You and our other Guatamala tribe definitely have a place carved in the year and my life. Aren't we some of the luckiest people int he world! Wish I could stop by for tomato sandwich. xxxx

What a lovely experience to be drawn into your world through your eyes and words. "My thread with Claude is 43 years long. It’s got gold tassels now, sparkly and strong as ever." I never thought about my friendships as threads or what they look like. Thank you for giving me a new way of seeing the world. I'm grateful we're in each other's lives!

Happy Birthday, Kim. What a year you've had - I'm gonna guess it was like none other. The photo of you on my porch on Fillmore street bending over a table mounded high with zucchini, tomatoes, peppers and all sorts of herbs comes to mind. I very much appreciate you sharing your 55th year - thrilling, scary, calming. Happiness always in all ways!

What a year indeed. That garden on Fillmore was sumthin. You figured into my 55th year in a major way, and for that I am grateful.
