Today, more surprise presents!
When I got home a bag from France hanging on my door full of super smelly cheese, provencal olives and macarons, these incredible colorful meringue cookies that I have gone at length about in the past. (Except I can't eat them right now because I'm on a sugar break. And a caffeine break. Amongst other things.)
At the post office, on a more serious and sentimental note, a cd sent to me posthumously via the assistant of a friend, Carol Cole, who was and is very much loved and though I never met her in person we corresponded for a whole lot of years. She will be very greatly missed. The cd is a remixing of songs by Nat King Cole & Natalie Cole, her relatives. I was so touched to read the notes that came with it, both from her assistant and from Carol only a few months before she passed. It impresses me and moves me that in her passing I could feel so acknowledged. Just wow. We have to love who we love while we can. Also, you never know how you will touch other people's lives.
Ah, a week of so many gifts. Let's all be grateful, grateful as we can, for how much abundance and love is all around us.
