CIMG3138 S, E and I at Hoover’s Cooking

On my birthday S, E and I went out with a group of people, only they didn’t know they were celebrating my birthday. They got together on the occasion of someone else’s birthday. Since we had no lives of our own, S and I had to surreptitiously sneak my birthday into someone else’s celebration.

We went to a restaurant called Hoover’s Cooking, which serves home-style cooking. It is a kind of place where vegetables are served only as an excuse to eat a lot of butter. Other people’s birthdays give you an excuse to eat at places where your good sense would never let you go eat on your own.
