Christmas came in the mail today

I received an unexpected package in the mail today. One of my dear friends from college sent me a Christmas present. I was giddy as I tore it open to reveal what was inside. I was a good girl and read the enclosed card first. ;) Inside were two wrapped packages. I did not wait until Christmas. There was no way! The gifts were amazingly perfect for me. The first was a Jane Austen action figure. Yes, you read that right, a Jane Austen action figure. That is going on my desk tomorrow (I have a desk now at work as of this evening), for sure! The other item was "A Classic Chocolate Novel" - a box of truffles shaped like an old book. Very yummy, too, as I have just discovered. The gift showed knowledge of me and what I like, and that made something simple into something extremely meaningful. It really made my day!

A Jane Austen action figure sounds cool!
I am sure I would enjoy 'reading' a chocolate novel.

God Bless
