I know I’ve written about receiving presents that are delivered into the workplace before. I think that it’s such a good idea to do for someone. Especially if they are having a shitty workday. It’s out of the ordinary. It’s also unexpected which makes it even better of a surprise. It’s a win win situation, no doubt about it. Unless, you abnormal people out there don’t fancy presents or surprise packages. I guess I am just easy then. =) (NOT LITERALLY)

One of the most original and coolest presents that I’ve received is a pineapple. A fresh, hand-picked pineapple from Maui. I’m not sure if it was a present whose intentions meant “Hey! Since you couldn’t make it to Hawaii with me, here’s Hawaii bought to you (in the form of a pineapple which I love love love!) or “Hey! Sucks to be you NOT in Hawaii enjoying the perfect weather,and perfect pineapples”.

Either way, the thought and efforts were there and I applaud that. It’s definitely a pleasant surprise.

In this day and age, who really gets flowers anymore?? I can’t remember the last time I got them..maybe over two years? But then again, does edible arrangements count? Oh wait, I did get a beautiful spring mix for my birthday this year.  They were gorgeous!

Today was a cruddy day.  The rain, the wind, the wisdom tooth pains. It is the perfect combination for resulting in cranky, moody, miserable ME.

UNTIL, I discovered sorbet in fruit shells!!! OMG, incredible. I’ve only had this similar frozen dessert in my neighborhood restaurant, Belvedere.  But, now since I found it in a super store, I can enjoy them at home anytime I like. Although, it is not as freshly, homemade as the restaurant, it will just do when I have my midnight cravings. The bonus is that it comes in a variety of flavors, all of which I coincidentally love love love!

If reading this tidbit caused you to feel the need to urgently know where to find my precious discovery, feel free to email me under the “Contact” tab and write an essay of why I should tell you where to find this secret gem.

I  find myself talking more and more about Luke’s these days, and realize that I only wrote a few sentences about them in a tidbit without including any pictures. Also, I keep getting calls from people this past week asking for its location. So here I am writing a proper post on Luke’s Lobster! Easily inspired! A good thing?
