Happy Birthday Madame First Lady

Today is First Lady Michelle Obama's birthday, who was born on this date in Chicago in 1964.

The FLOTUS is looking good and handling her business a year into her husband's presidency.

So yes, I'm proud that this brilliant, statuesque and talented sister is representing my country. The fact she's an AKA is a bonus.

Happy birthday Madame First Lady. May you have many more and another seven years representing us well.

Happy 17th Anniversary To The First Couple

It escaped my attention that October 3 marked the First Couple's 17th wedding anniversary, but it didn't escape President Obama's.

They were married on October 3, 1992, so to celebrate the occasion last Saturday the First Couple got dressed up and headed to a local Washington restaurant called the Blue Duck Tavern for a private dinner.

It's in Washington's West End neighborhood and is an upscale, casual restaurant without a break-the-bank menu and American cuisine.

Hmm, may have to check it out.

Anyhoo, Happy anniversary to the First Couple.
