Year-Old Birthdays
1yr. birthday parties are fun, despite what you might think about them. They’re more for family and friends than for the babies, of course.

Also curtesy Ingle’s, lunch is a delicious (if large) collection of bargains. I downed a ham and cheese sandwhich and a dozen deviled eggs (6 whole eggs).
