I feel funny posting online before I have mailed a “hard copy” thank-you card to my benefactor, Jill, but my mom, the zealous blog advocate, insisted!
So here’s my update- Jenn and I celebrated our winter holiday on January 30th- we had a tree and a big homemade breakfast and gifts! I was thrilled to open from Jill a magenta Starbucks coffee travel mug, all the better to transport . . . the fruits of my generous Starbucks gift card!
There is a Starbucks right next to my work building and friends often stop by my office on their way to see if I’d like to join them on a coffee run- so now I am empowered to take a break and indulge in my favorite afternoon treat!! I pass the same Starbucks when I get off the metro in the morning and now I am able to answer its siren’s call!
Plus, the gift card came with a stocking full of chocolate covered espresso beans which are another one of my best-loved treats. So until I have a picture of myself holding the travel mug, beaming with joy at the Starbucks counter, or tossing back a few chocolate beans – just imagine it!
Thank you so much Jill! It is a perfect gift!!
