Hello fellow Accomplice!

 

Blanche protectively loving her kid reminds me of the early love and protection I received from my much-loved sister.

From a birthday on Thursday all the way to celebrating her today, may we all raise a toast to her health as we dig in with her Birthday Picks.

HUZZAH!!!!
