The roommate's revelry

The LAbode sparkled with pink-hued glitz yesternight in prompt preparation for covert Operation Roommate Midnight Birthday Surprise.The environs radiated with the roommate's most favored fancies, including a handcrafted birthday banner in the form of jaunty paper hearts
infused with tinges of her color of choice - pink,
and a chocolate bar themed spread consisting of the sweet treats by which she is most enamored, including luscious strawberries dunked in addictive Nutella,
homebaked dulce de leche brownie decadence,
her most preferred wine, moscato, paired with a non-alchy alternative, fizzy French berry lemonade,
delicate chocolate hazelnut wafers,
tasty dark chocodipped pretzel slims,
and the utmost epicurean necessity - Sprinkles' posh dark chocolate cupcakes,
all encompassed by a vibrant boyfriend-bequeathed pink floral bouquet
and whimsical servingware.
The surprisee's candid reaction ne'er fails to be the highlight of surprise shenanigans. Wouldn't you be in agreement?
Our hearts were gladdened to commemorate the first hour of Annie's 23rd birthday
with her in congenial cheer and amiable affection.
Happiest of 23rd birthdays to you, dear roommate! We've come light years since we executed that introductory handshake and complementary greeting 9 years ago prior to watching Spiderman with the posse. I'm thankful to God for your thirst to know Him more deeply and delve into His word to see and love Him for who He truly is. Your inclination to analyze situations and be reflective encourages me mucho, and I know God has great plans for you, far greater than you can comprehend. Thank you for always being there for me and for being a consistent form of encouragement. And for putting up with my OCD-ness in the apartmento. Youdabest and Iloveyouso, dear friend!

My dearest roomie,

You are the sweetest friend ever!! Thank you so much for all the effort you put in in making my birthday ABSOLUTELY UNFORGETABLE!! Last night was truly one of the most epic surprises ever! (as you can tell from my not so glamorous reaction LOL).

We've definitely come a long way since 9 years ago! Thank YOU so much for always being there for me and always encouraging me to trust in God whenever my worries overwhelm me. I thank Him all the time for our friendship because you are truly a blessing in my life. <3
