Happy BD Rich!
Nicely Done Barb, NICELY DONE!!!
 
Jiminy Crickets Barb.... You Shirley Know How To Birthday Celebrate!
Congrats To The Birthday Boy Too! Certain He's Fat & Happy Now!
GREAT POST!

and... BEAUTIFUL Cheesecake! I'll BET it was AWESOME!
 
Your cheesecake stole the show, Barb. And what an excellent show it was!

Happy birthday, Rich! Keep living the dream you two!
 
I have a little green baggie like that I keep out in the garage. :cool: j/k... Looks like a delicious feast! Everything looks great.

Cheers!
 
Happy Belated Birthday Rich! Your Birthday feast was fit for a King! Barb, love what you did to the Brussels, I've never thought about adding cranberry, but I know now, and will try soon! As for the beautiful cheese cake, one word. Awesome!

And you're most welcome for the seasoning! Let me know if you need more.
 
Happy Birthday Rich! You are a luck man my friend. I don't know which is a better present - getting a meal like that or having a wife that can grill it for you. Barb - that cheesecake is over the top! Kari wants the recipe for it...

Regards,

John
 
Thanks to all you guys and the ladies too for the HBDs and well wishes. I am blessed with having a such a wonderful lady in my life. Being married to Barb for 31
years has been the best thing that ever happed to me. We have so much fun together as she shares, as I do all the things we both love to do together.
Thank you all for the kind words and yes that cheese cake was off the hook.
 
Barb, what a nice birthday dinner you fixed up for Rich. It all looked great.
And Happy Birthday Rich, looks like you had a great day!
 
Happy Birthday Rich! You are the only person I know (other than my father-in-law) who actually asks for Brussel Sprouts...masking the taste with cranberries is an excellent idea Barb.
 
Thanks everyone for the nice words and it was fun making the dinner. Like Rich said after 31 years we still have lots of fun and cooking together is one of them for sure.
To John and the rest I will post the recipe for the dessert later today.

Thanks Barb
 
Most excellent grilling Barb! Happy Birthday Rich.....you lucky son of a gun, you sure married the right lady.
