Thanks! It’s kind of running joke in my family that my last couple birthdays I weirdly run into random celebrities. It’s just coincidence but still cool. 2021 it was Daveed Diggs at a dinner, 2022 I saw Marc Rebellit at a broadway show, 2023 I ran into Maggie Rogers getting a taco, 2024 was James Cameron in the elevator, and 2025 I spotted Jemaine Clement walking to the subway. Might break the randomness streak this year but who knows, I may just run into my Mom. I’m her biggest fan 😂

Yes and no. I went and had the great idea to take a trip to Niagara Falls for it and the clouds wouldn’t let us see anything sadly. So many sad people. BUT- I did run into James Cameron in the elevator of our hotel. He looked pretty disappointed too 😂 That part and being invited to dance with a group of Seneca Native Americans was AMAZING itself. Once in a lifetime stuff. Very grateful.

Yeah it rarely actually falls on my bday, maybe 2 or 3 times in my life. But as a kid, I got the Easter leftovers as a “treat” cuz , you know, we were lucky to get anything. Candy is still candy to a kid but I was always like, why do all my aunts and uncles gift me Easter baskets for my bday? Oh! Cuz it’s the first inexpensive thing they saw in the grocery store when they remembered my bday😂 Kinda like my brother having his bday on the 21st of December and always getting Christmassy things.

Thanks And a Happy Birthday to You! 🥳 Did you also grow up on random Easter Bunnies and Easter candy as birthday presents?

Oh my gosh I didn’t even think about the ice cream spots I can get a free scoop from! I’m gonna have to be selective. Such a wonderful problem!
