How late am I to the party. I'm so sorry, sweet lady. Happy belated birthday from me as well!! I can't tell you how often I think back to our Seattle adventure last year, and each time I smile again just thinking about how you crossed an ocean to join us. SO brilliant!! It was an absolute treat meeting you in person, Diane, and you are everything and more everyone has written on this thread. Incredibly stylish, super thoughtful, enthusiastic, attentive, modest, amazingly talented, compassionate, funny... It was also so fun to discover you are a foodie as well, and a dessert and sweets lover to boot (we could have talked about all the delicious meals we've had in the past until the cows came at that fab little Italian place, couldn't we:-)
I'm glad you had a marvelous day, and felt celebrated and spoilt. Just as it should be.
