My birthday at the Grandview Restaurant


I had a wonderful birthday. I thoroughly enjoyed going to Bijan's for coffee with my work group and enjoyed the cards and email greetings from friends. I left work early on Friday so that we could join Jeff, Wendy, Micah and Ashley for a birthday dinner at the Grandview. The waitress was awesome, the food was good and the view amazing.(Click on the title of this post to see some beautiful sunset photos on the Grandview website.) I loved seeing the hills at this time of year when they are so green and all of the trees are in bloom -- it's really beautiful. We saw lots of deer. The Santa Clara Valley is beautiful at sunset then as it gets dark the valley is once again tranformed into a sea of twinkling lights as night sets in. We had a wonderful dinner at a beautiful place. Then we went over to Jeff and Wendy's for cookies and ice cream. Wendy made some amazing chocolate chip with a little oatmeal cookies--a variation on Grandma Cece's recipe (that she'll become famous for with her grandchildren) that were fabulous....even though I'm dieting they were totally worth the calories. A great birthday.
