Happy birthday, Thyra!


Today is the dean's birthday!  She's celebrating with a vacation in Newport Beach (current weather: 64 degrees) where, she informs me, she plans to sit by the pool, read fiction on her Nook, and spend a few hours learning our new computer data system.  No offense, Thyra, but your first two objectives are much better. 

Yesterday we sent her out in style with a lemon buttermilk rhubarb bundt cake and sparkling cider.  Thyra is usually our resident birthday baker, which might explain why this particular cake had a crack running down the middle.  Luckily the lemon glaze hid a multitude of sins.  Still yummy.
