It's better to give than to receive.
I love giving gifts. If money weren't an issue I would buy things for people and give random gifts all the time. I am constantly seeing things that I think this person would love or that person could use. I wish I had the means to give as much as I wanted to. This was a gift for my father in laws wife, Kelly...hence the "K". It's a coffee mug. But I thought it was cute as a planter. But since there's no drainage...it will eventually be cute as a pencil holder! Or, dare I say, an actual coffee cup! This basket full of goodies was just presented to my sister in law on Sunday. Please forgive the orange-y yellow of the photo...it was early morning and the sun was pouring through the window and I had a heck of a time with the lighting! The basket contains some bar mops and some dish towels...a notepad and some sticky notes...and of course, the 4 jars of pickled okra I made the other day. I hope it came out OK. I told her to give it a week...and she said she couldn't wait that long...and that she'd let me know how it came out in a few days. That's fine, too!
