40 ...
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH !!
No, please, don't tell me that's the best age or anything else ...
This is just twice 20 years ...
So, to forget this terrible fatality, I have decided to celebrate it twice too !
And my two birthdays will look like the two part of a life.
Before 20 years old and after 20 years old.
My husband is a very kind man. And most of all, he knows me by heart.
So, once a month or so, I use to go to restaurant, with 4 of my girlfriends.
When I'm with them, I feel like we would be 20 years old truly.
We're eating and eating, talking and talking, laughing and laughing, drinking and ...
We're spending such a great time together. I love our "single ladies night".
During those moments, I'm not a wife, I'm not a mother anymore. For some hours, I'm just me.
So, tonight, we're going to eat together and most of all ... after, they take me to DANCE, baby !!
To move our anatomy !!
... Until 2 o'clock in the morning... if I don't fall asleep before !
No, because, I show off about this night, but, after 11pm, I'm scared to be slouch in a sofa, with some dribble running down from my open mouth ...
But I never lose my dignity ! ...
I'll tell you, don't worry.
And the second birthday will be to celebrate the second part of my life :
the serious one.
the serious one.
With a part of my family, my childhood friends and some very important persons to me.
... And as I would be trained the week before, I will move once again my anatomy.
No fear !
We're going to share this time in a restaurant, dancing once again.
And we're going to eat.
And to drink.
And to dance ...
And the day after, I will have the feeling to have 70 years old !...
It will be wonderful :)
So, before leaving ... and going to the bathroom to try to hide my future age with make up ... I want to share with you this easy recipe.

BWWWAAAAAAHHHHHHH !!!!
Let your onions brown in some olive oil. And when they begin to gold, add the garlic pressed.
Step 2 :
Cut your zucchini in slices or triangles and make them brow on a middle fire. They must begin to caramelize, that's better !

A-By the way, it's up to your husband to make you feel like a 20 year old! : J
DeleteBig deal ... :D
DeleteHappy Birthday, Axelle! Enjoy your night outs! Hope you have a great time and you are only 40 once, I've been there! hahaha!
ReplyDeleteYour zucchini pie looks delicious! Have fun!
Thank you very much, Joyce ! Yes, I know, I know, you're so right !
DeleteIt's just that 40 seems to be the real "before/after", for me.
Now .. I'M AN ADULT ! ... I can't make stupid things anymore !!
...Well ... NOT YET ! I'll be 40 in november 21th, I still have some days for making "young stupid things". :D
OMG, so you're just barely 2 months older than me!!!! I am panicking too, about the big 4!!! I like your idea of having 2 birthday parties, that sounds like a fun idea :) And I am looking forward to reading all the details of the parties ;)
ReplyDeletePS. I think that instead of "on the middle fire" you can say "on medium heat" or something like that ;) But I love your idea of the zucchini pie, it's almost like a quiche, I've never tried something like that, it sounds yummy!
What ?? Did you think I was older ??? :)
DeleteWell, it doesn't look burned to me, it looks delicious and crispy, if anyone says it looks burned to you, you can say it's cajun style.:)
ReplyDeleteI know there's a song out there called life begins at 40, so you're just beginning life!
