Happy Birthday, Sweet Cecelia

Today is my granddaughter's birthday.  She is 12 years old today and becoming quite a lovely young lady but I was reminded of another birthday seven years ago.  She and her brother were living with me while their mom was in Iraq and she informed me a few days before her birthday, when we were planning a little party for her, that she wanted Chinese food for her birthday.  I was surprised.  My grandkids liked, still like do like, Chinese food but I don't cook Chinese.  We always had Chinese at a local buffet restaurant.  I decided to delve a little deeper so I asked her what kind of Chinese food she wanted precisely.  Her reply "Chocolate pudding and jello."
