Neither had I, until today. I'll pass. I agree with Gloria
that I'd rather not get a gift just because some marketing
boob says I so. That's what birthdays are for -- I can
understand why everyone should celebrate my existance. ;-)

I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes -- there, I said it! But I
do love omelets, and the asparagus/cheddar part sounds
divine...
