![]() Your care package came today and *thank you* - you're so, so, sweet! The recipe for coconut meringue pie on the package sounds really good, so (I'd like to make it or at least record a recipe before the package is used up. Thanks again, and please let me know when there's anything I can do for you! -- Food is an important part of a balanced diet. |

Stater Bros. is my local grocer and they stock both the sweetened and unsweetened coconut right next to each other. I bought two of the un-ones by mistake. Having used up one bag, I was happy to send the other to you, and for free. As in I paid nothing for the postage. I often leave a bit of fresh baked goods in the box for my mail carrier and he took it upon himself to post to you. He is such a quiet, nice man that well serves to my physical limitations (being four sorts of arthritis) by either coming to the door or leaving packages on a bench where they are easiest for me to carry in. Speaking of, I well remember the postman who delivered to our area when I was a little girl. In the summers my mother would send me out with a glass of iced tea for him and the two of us would sit together under our big Elm tree while he enjoyed it. Back then postmen walked their route, and there were bakery trucks and the Ice Man coming down street, and the Fuller Brush man. Times sure have changed, hey! ....Picky |

I did all those things too. Did the Jewel Tea man come around as well? http://hizzoners.com/southern-comfor...es/76-iced-tea |

Yes, we not only had the Jewel Tea man coming 'round, but I worked in their Anaheim CA office handling the books for Los Angeles driver's route. On Fridays the office had a "warehouse sale" wherein we could get substantial discounts on everything they carried. ....Picks |

I certainly will put a note from you in the box tomorrow, along with the small chocolate Bundt cake I plan to make for him tonight. I have two sets of mini Bundt pans that make two each, and most any single batter bakes three minis. With living alone, I just love those pans because I can make three at a time that are the perfect size for me not to get tired of, and to also be able to give the other two to my direct neighbors that are two and three member households. Works well, and no one gets tired of being Picky-gifted this way! ....Picks |

Did you get any of the dishes? My mother loved those. |
