Today I am 30 years old and in honor of that I was going to list the Top 30 Meals of My Life or The 30 Dishes Most Important To Me but, let's admit it, no one really wants to read that, do they? No, instead they want to see a video of the younger me (age 7) showing off tomatoes in our backyard in Oceanside, New York. Back to regular blogging tomorrow, America! And, yes: I still wear my socks the same way.

Darling Adam...you know we all love to read ANYTHING you write! Happy Birthday! I assume you and Craig are going out to a fabulous dinner so I expect to read all about it tomorrow. ; )

Happy Birthday Adam!! - LOVE this video...you were and are so adorable. Hope you and Craig do something fun and that it includes a great meal! Many, many more... (I just turned 40 - my 30's went by like that, so slow down and enjoy every moment - well, you know, almost every moment!)

ACK! I'm older than you! Not by much (I turned 30 last Nov) but *still*! I always pictured you older than me. Oh well. Love the socks, I bet wearing them that way gets the girls, huh? ; )

Oooh! We have the same birthday, Adam! I'm 21 today -- we're both hitting milestones!

My favorite line, "This is my favorite tomato that I've grown. And Daddy helps me." Priceless. :>
Happy Birthday!!!!!

I'll never forget your birthday, Adam, because my youngest daughter shares it. February 18th is a
magical date!
Vicki,
Faithful senior citizen reader...

Happy BDay! I have been a silent reader for years....since law school! Next time you are out West please swing through Portland. Lots of fun places to see.

How freaking adorable are YOU??
Happy 30th, Adam. I hope you had a fantastic birthday!!

Happy Birthday Adam!! LOVE the video, you were so adorable showing off the tomatoes, I can see the passion for food started at an early age :-) But I'm going to disagree with what you said because I would love it if you did a post on the Top 30 Meals of your Life or The 30 Dishes Most Important To you, because lets face it, I read your food blog every day because I think you're a food God and I hold your opinions quite high, as I'm sure a lot of other people do!

Happy birthday!
That wonderful video clearly shows that your considerable charm is not a newly acquired characteristic.
And congratulations on the Times listing!
