Welcome back In Time For Christmas

5:17 AM

A few years ago a friend of mine went on a sabbatical. She had been reluctant to go in the first place but she needed it badly. She was afraid she was going to burn out. But she was also afraid that if she left it would rub off on her progress report. We convinced her to take some time off for herself, which she finally did.

She came back in early December all fresh and full of life. We decided to throw her a welcome back party. The office was already beginning to look like Christmas and a few early Christmas gifts had also been given out. So we decided to make it a ‘Welcome Back in Time for Christmas’ party. There would be cake and balloons and pizza and cookies. Our menu was full of variety, the weird kind. But we were all generally excited about welcoming back our friend. We had decided to give her a small Christmas gift of some kind. We weren’t looking at any big spending, some one was getting a snow globe someone thought of a ceramic angel. I was indecisive about what to get her.

We had all set a limit on what we would spend on her gift. Everything that was affordable in the budget didn’t appeal to me and I wanted her to get Unique Christmas gifts. The easy and obvious stuff was already taken. There were two other colleagues who were stuck with the same problem. Everyone else was done wrapping their Christmas Holiday gifts. The three of us decided to ‘team up’ and get her one really awesome present. Someone suggested we get her a Christmas gift basket. We were a little apprehensive about it. The woman who suggested it had a habit of gifting a baby cactus plant to new people and it seemed a bit early for Christmas gift baskets. We settled on a nice box of fruit with gourmet chocolate sauce. We got her a box with a dozen pieces and she loved it. The party made her feel like she had truly been missed.

Sending Fruit Gifts To Texas

4:00 AM

I have a friend who lives in Texas. We met in college and were very close until she moved away after getting married. Ever since she began living in Texas, her tastes have changed a lot and I find I have to get to know her all over again. She used to like getting crystal ornaments and other delicate things but not any more. I guess some of her husband’s attitude has rubbed off on her. The biggest problem is getting Christmas gifts for her since I don’t know what she likes anymore. We call each other a week after Christmas and discuss our Christmas Gifts, our favorites and the misses.

She never brings up mine. It really began getting to me so I thought I would either buy her the perfect Christmas gift or start sending her gift certificates. I tried to find something that was really popular in Texas. I couldn’t afford most of the stuff and the stuff that I could afford didn’t seem to make an appropriate Christmas gift. I decided I’d end up sending her a gift certificate after all. The thought was depressing and I decided to cheer myself up with a box of chocolate strawberries. They had been an early gift from my sister. She knew how much I loved them.

The Strawberries got me thinking. I had sent this chocolate fruit to almost all kinds of people and they had loved it. It even came in fruit bouquets that were very appealing Christmas Fruit baskets. I decided to take a chance and ordered a big chocolate fruit bouquet for my friend. I scheduled the delivery so that it would arrive early for Christmas. The very next day after the delivery was made my friend called me up. She was raving about my Christmas gift and wanted to know where I had ordered it from. After teasing her for a while, I finally told her where she too could buy the delicious Christmas fruit.
