The doorbell rings and fruit lands on your doorstep! What a great idea!
My husband just received a beautifully artistic fruit arrangement from a well wisher - a total surprise as well. This is sooooo-o-o much better than getting flowers and way yummier than roses or tulips, which tend to be a tad dry in comparison, dontcha know. What a blast!
You know when you get flowers, you think "How nice. Mr. or Mrs. "X" was thinking of me. So. What happens now - I guess I'll just sit and watch them die a slow wilty death. Hmmm...Now I feel better, maybe."
But fruit - cool, juicy, pretty to look at before it disappears in glorious delight down your throat ( relieving the soreness from intubation at the same time, yaah). Flowers can't do that, right?
All it took was one look at the fruit arrangement and I was hooked. You might wonder if I've been living on another planet but it never occurred to me to check into fruit arrangements. Now I know. Next time I want to make someone feel better, Edible Arrangements is what I'll send. For real.
