You know people who go "above and beyond"? Well, Udita goes above "above and beyond". I asked her to please send a box of Swiss Miss hot chocolate to me via Karim, as he was visiting her in Sugarland, TX last week. One box. What actually arrived? Three bagfuls of Jelly Belly jelly beans (my favorite), Pillsbury Funfetti cake mix (which I requested as I've never heard of funfetti before, until Mel mentioned it to me), one box of Nestle rich chocolate hot chocolate mix and one box of Swiss Miss milk chocolate mix - all of which Karim carried in a backpack for the entire day today (from Paddington to Kingston to Maida Vale) until he (very) kindly delivered the goodies to me this evening. Gratitude doesn't even begin to describe how I'm feeling right now ... possibly tears of joy ... there's a reason why this girl is my BFF (besides the fact she once drove me to Logan International Aiport at 3 a.m.).
hey, we can hardly see the swiss miss.. the jelly belly is overpowering it!!

I know, there's SO much Jelly Belly - Karim told me to close my eyes and open the bag for him while he placed each item in one by one ... at one point, I was like "This is HEAVY."
ReplyDeleteYou hit the motherload! I love funfetti. It always brings a smile to my face. You have truly wonderful friends!
ReplyDeleteM, you started it! But yes, I'm VERY blessed to have the friends I do - don't think I deserve them!
