Happy Birthday Katie!
As you readers out there may know (or will soon learn), we here at Algonquin love birthdays. It’s a chance to break out the cake, dust off our vocal pipes, and most importantly, celebrate ourselves.
.
Today is the birthday of our fabulous assistant marketing manager, Katie Ford. In her honor, we thought we’d list 10 reasons why she’s a unique snowflake.
.
1. She ran a marathon.
2. She can knit things, like this.
3. On that same knitting note: Once, when it was so cold in her old apartment in NYC, instead of getting up to turn on the heat, she knitted herself a hat.
4. Sometimes, she brings us homemade lemon squares.
5. She rescued a stray dog from a gas station, named him Tennessee, and brought him home.
6. She has a pet crawdad in a fifty-gallon aquarium.
7. She drinks coffee from a straw.
8. She was one of only twenty-five students from out of state to receive a scholarship to UNC Chapel Hill.
9. She always slouches in her chair after 2:00pm.
10. Her sister appeared as a child in television commercials.

Forget sweaters and hats–she once spent an entire Sunday knitting a stuffed chicken. JUST TO SEE IF SHE COULD. Happy Birthday, K-Ford!
