It’s Jes’ birthday today!  He’s always a bit down on his birthday but he was surprised last night by a little package from Amazon.  It was sent from Brother and it was an ice cube tray that makes huge ice cubes for drinking with Scotch.

He was so excited that he washed it right away, filled it with water, and placed it carefully into the freezer.  For the rest of the night, he went back to the freezer to watch the water freeze and prematurely pulled one of the half-frozen cubes out.

Thanks for the entertaining gift, Brother!  He couldn’t stop saying, “that’s awesome”.

And later today…

We had drinks at Public House with Victor.  It was low-key and just what Jes wanted.

Then we had birthday cupcakes at home.
