So, around 4:15 p.m. today I had just finished taking one of the online training courses that I have to finish and there was a knock at the door. I was a bit delayed getting there, but there was a box! A box for me! A box that I had not ordered!
In it was a wonderful card from a friend in college. She had sent me Canadian Twizzlers, some oven mitts that had a bit of a licorice color with gelled stripes and a handmade apron with licorice pattern on the fabric.
What a wonderful surprise!
Laurel and I used to go on walks and talks called "licorice runs." I think I've written about her before - http://rebeckeronline.blogspot.com/2010/06/true-gifts.html.
Periodically over the last 15-16 years she's sent me a package of licorice with a nice note.
What an amazing friend!
Totally out of the blue. Totally appreciated. Totally bad for my teeth. Haaa.
Thanks for making my week Laurel!
