3 years ago I was celebrating with my kids at Integrity Academy in Austin, TX. 2 years ago, I was celebrating with friends at my favorite Nepalese/Tibetan restaurant in Chengdu, Sichuan, China, called Kathmandu. 1 year ago, I was in the northwestern-most tip of Yunnan, enjoying Tibetan dumplings in Diqin, taking a break from my trek around Kham and Yunnan. Today, I am in the mountains of Southern Colorado, about to go for breakfast with a friend, and "celebrate" later tonight with a zoom vidcall with friends and family across the US and the globe! I look back and feel so much gratitude when I think of where I've spent my birthday the last few years! It's Day 19 of my 21- to 30-day fast and I'm still feeling good! 2016! Celebrating 2016 with my wonderful IA Peeps in a cerulean boa that I had to wear all day! Then out with BFFs for dinner, drinks, and live music! And just because I always want Seo Jisub for my Bday! Still do LOL 2017! As usual, several celebrations during my BDay Month! Drinks out at the Carousel Club in ATX and then dinner at a Korean Restaurant with my fav: a cake from Korean Bakery, Tous les Jours! 2018! My fav restaurant in Chengdu, Sichuan, China! A fusion of Nepalese, Tibetan, and Italian! Owned by my Tibetan friend and his Nepalese wife. Yummy! 2019! My trek across Yunnan and Kham. I spent my Bday in the northeastern tip of Yunnan, a Kham Tibetan area. In the town of Deqin, where I bought myself a traditional yak butter tea and tsampa breakfast bowl, handcrafted by a local Tibetan artisan. As always, I fill up on yak butter tea. For my Bday dinner, I enjoyed Tibetan yak dumplings with spicy sauce and more butter tea! 2020! Enjoyed a great no-breakfast brunch at the local coffee shop with friends, got caught in a downpour, and sang all the way home! Happy Birthday to me!!
