When you celebrate a birthday that ends in a "O" it stands to reason that you should celebrate for an entire week, or at least a few days. Today I wandered south. We had breakfast at Bliss Bakery where according to their motto "the bakers do it all night long" and this was our view:
I had wanted to pick up a bottle of Note Bene from Black Hills Winery but was told by the friendly staff that when 3,000 cases were released in April they sold out in 40 minutes. It would have been a nice gift to myself but instead I put my name on a list for the next release.
Lunch was at the Burrowing Owl Winery look at all those grapevines!!!!!!!
with a nice glass of Sauvignon Blanc

Happy birthday!

It must be a really good wine to have to get on waiting list to buy some. Your trip south sounds great. Have fun.
What a beautiful view, so picturesque! Hope you had a wonderful time celebrating the digit ending in "0". Happy belated birthday! :)
so pretty!
Oh happy days! looks so beautiful val!...Relaxing in beautiful wineries, eating wonderful produce and drinking lovely wines...glad to see you enjoying your celebrations fully!
I think you should celebrate ANY birthday in style, tbh! Looks like you had a wonderful time - great pics!
That view is spectacular!
Beautiful scenery! Lunch looks pretty delicious too! Glad you are enjoying your birthday....extended! :D
A gorgeous countryside...Canada rocks!
When does the party end?? Keep on celebrating my dear!
awesome wine glass shot! i love the inverted image in the wine--very artsy-fartsy. :) and hey--happy birthday again.
Happy Birthday! What an amazing view! And the dinner you had with your daughter looked scrumptious. Here's a toast to you with best birthday wishes attached!
Happy birthday Sweetie! I am glad you are celebrating so well! :)
What a great way to spend a day Val! I'm with Peter-Canada Rocks!
Photo's look gorgeous. Excellent views and excellent wine - what more can you ask for!
Happy birthday! Beautiful pictures. I'd love to go to the Okanagan some day.
You are after my heart, yes a birthday should last at least a week. Ending in 0, maybe a month is more appropriate especially when you pass 50.
Looks like a beautiful day!
Oh my, look at this. Couple days of celebration. I envy you. Nice pictures. That bakery looks so good.
Happy B-Day Val - if this is celebrating a birthday, we should all have one every day. Well, maybe not - then it wouldn't feel so special. Gorgeous view - it would be hard to leave.
I want to live in that last photo
What a nice place to sit and dine. Wow beautiful view.
Oooooh! What beautiful pictures and a great time you are having!!! You deserve it :D and I think this is a wonderful and round number for a birthday... see? you have a wonderful daughter, a trip to get lost in the vineyards, some wine, good sunny days, good health... what else can anyone desire?
it makes me very happy and i feel completely humbled when people thank me for the posts i write. i cook for the family, and there's always a funny story to tell with a food theme. cretans don't eat to live, they live to eat!
That's it, it's settled. I'm moving to Canada.
Happy Birthday!
Happy belated birthday!
