Honored to have taken photos of the birthday lady 😍 Celebrate her new year at Bistro Sojo with a complementary champagne Thursday through Saturday! ⭐️🎉
🥂 Help Us Celebrate Martha’s 60th Birthday! 🥂
Some people seek the spotlight. Martha has always been the person who shines it on others through her cooking, her kindness, and the love she pours into everyone around her.
This Thursday, Martha Addison turns 60, and we’re celebrating her all weekend long at Bistro SoJo! Come join us Thursday through Saturday and help us celebrate the amazing person she is. Enjoy a complimentary glass of champagne as we raise a toast to Martha. 🥂
(Martha will be at her food truck on Friday, but we’d still love for you to stop in, enjoy your champagne, and celebrate her in spirit.)
As Martha looks back at the journey from the young woman she was 40 years ago to the woman she is today, she shared a few lessons she wishes she could have told her younger self sooner:
“Trust more. Worry less. Forgive sooner. Dream bigger. Love more freely.”
Life has a way of teaching us lessons when we’re ready to receive them. Martha hopes these words encourage someone else a little earlier in their journey than they came to her.
✨ Have faith in God and in yourself.
✨ Forgive freely and make room for peace.
✨ Protect what matters, including your own peace of mind.
✨ Keep dreaming. You’re never too old to grow.
✨ Love completely and compliment loudly.
And one more thing she wishes she could have told her 20-year-old self…
At 60, you can wear a tutu. 😉
Because life is meant to be lived, joy is meant to be shared, and we’re never too old to have a little fun.
“At 60, I’ve learned that faith carries us, forgiveness frees us, courage protects us, dreams inspire us, and love makes it all worthwhile. The best part is that the journey is not over yet.”
Happy 60th Birthday, Martha. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your heart, passion, and wisdom with our Bistro SoJo family.
We can’t wait to celebrate you! 🥂
