Today is Mika's 34th birthday.
On this day both Annikki ansd I especally recall Mika's grandfather, my late father, who gave Mika his name, Michael, as 29th September is St. Michael's Day. As a result, Mika has a middle name also, Kuriyan, which was my father's name!
Annikki made a special floral raspberry topped cake. All the colourful flowers from the garden are edible.
We got him the really super spicey chilli beef dish from the Beijing Chinese restaurant that all three of us like.
It was a beautiful autumn day which started cold - below zero, and then climbed to +13 C with bright sunshine.
