It’s my birthday today! I just turned twenty five. I think I’m meant to be a proper grown-up by now. Maybe. A little.

Cyrus, has been showering me in gifts since he got back from Los Angeles a couple weeks ago. I’m pretty sure he would have burst if he held out all of the gifts until today (:

In any case, official birthday gifts were a copy of Bouchon, and 512MB of memory for my new camera.

Inofficial pre-birthday gifts were my new camera (: (see aforementioned memory), and a copy of Les Halles.

It is safe to say that this birthday season, I made out like a bandit. (Although, it’s also worth saying that I had no idea how expensive it is to buy things in New Zealand! The camera was about a third less, and the books were about half the price as they would be over here – including the currency conversion)
