Stina, the Daily Press photographer, celebrated her birthday last night with a huge number of friends. I honestly didn’t know half the people there. She meets a lot of people through her work for the paper, and Stina, being the person she is, befriends most of them.

She made out like a bandit though: works of art, socks (you have to know her), a book, a great selection of cards, and three cakes!

Anyhoo, here’s some photos of the affair, including a shot of the ice cream cake that Meredith and I made (it’s the one with the candles). Hit me up for the recipe, it’s incredibly easy.
