How cool to do a search of what happened on your birthday, Celia!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Interesting post.
ReplyDeleteAnd...Happy Birthday!!
Happy Birthday, Celia. Enjoy your own chocolate cake.
ReplyDeleteSean Connery? Are you kidding me? I don't share my birthday with anyone famous...except Jackie O. You've got a slew of people with your day, and Sean's only ONE of them???? Lucky girl! Loved this post--That picture of you with your cake just touches my heart every time I see it. So sweet, Celia. I hope you have a wonderful birthday today!
ReplyDeleteMuch love and hugs,
Cheryl
Happy Birthday Celia. You are still as pretty as in the picture. Getting better every day.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Celia! A great day, indeed--and a fascinating post!
ReplyDeleteCelia, let me wish you a happy birthday again. You have certainly lived a full and interesting life so far and accomplished much. You have not wasted your God-given talents and I know many people besides myself feel blessed to have you for a friend. Linda
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, cousin Celia. ☺ Hope your day is filled with pampering and the best year ever follows!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday and suck a cute picture!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Celia - sorry I missed 'your' day yesterday! You certainly share it with a lot of interesting people, and what an amazing collection of best selling novels at that time!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Celia! What a fun post. Thanks for the memories :)
ReplyDeleteHope you had a lovely birthday, Celia. You share it also with my No.2 son, his 50th.
ReplyDeleteI must try my date sometime. I only know one other sharer - the bad and romantic poet, Lord Byron. It's also the day Queen Victoria died.
P.S. Just to be nit-picky, but I'm sure you don't like typos to appear on your blog, you left the 'n' off the name of Richard Llewellyn, author of How Green Was My Valley.
Happy Birthday yesterday, Celia. sorry I showed up late for the party. I love all the factoids from your birthday year. I hope you celebrated your day in fine style.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for visiting my birthday blog.
ReplyDeleteI love all kinds of lists, and so what happened when I was born--perfect.
Yes, Sean Connery! And he's all mine.
Ahh, thank you, Mona. Trust me...not so pretty now. But I'm trying to age gracefully.
Thanks, Cousin Caroline.
Linda-your are always so kind and thank you for being such a good friend..what would I do without you?
Paula--I thought the novel list, too, was quite intriguing.
Yikes! Monya! I can't believe I left the "n" off--I knew how to spell his name. I get in a rush, you know.
Sarah--late is good. It's the thought that counts, and thank you very much.
Happy Birthday, Sweetie. Sorry I'm late. xxxx
ReplyDeleteCelia, BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Sean Connery, eh? One of my fave handsome actors.
ReplyDeleteAwesome blog post written by an awesome friend and author! Love ya and Happy Belated Birthday - hope this year is full of joy and many blessings. I loved your picture with your birthday cake and thanks for sharing all the fascinating things that happened on your special day!
ReplyDeleteHugs,Diane
I'm really late to the party but I brought tequila, lemons, and salt, so we can still party hearty. :) Hope you had a wonderful birthday week!
