About a month ago I received the most pleasant of surprises when an Editor I work with (a really groovy and wonderful lady named CLARE KENT) gave me a nice little hamper, all the way from Australia! Of course, being the chowhound that I was I decided to eat the gift before I actually blogged about it. Still, I did drop a "thank you!" e-mail to Clare, but at the same time I felt a little guilty that I didn't send her anything when I had the opportunity before (Images of Andrew Chan and Nicholas Crombie racing their really neat Hot Wheels cars that I gave them came springing to mind, along with the obligatory guilt-tripped feeling!).
And so, after having put a lot of thought into it, I've decided to drop a special shoutout to Clare!!! :D Hopefully, I'll have the opportunity to send her something nice in future :) But for now, THANK YOU, CLARE for brightening up my day with the mini hamper of goodies! Nothing like chocolates and tim tams to brighten up my day, but I must say that it was the first time I ate Australian Twisties and I swear, they tasted crispier, with a hint of kangaroo in 'em! ;)
Check out the yellow stressball!!! :D Although I don't actually use it for stress, It IS a lot of fun to hold it next to my face and smile when people pass by my cubicle. It makes me look nutty, in a ball-sy sort of way...
