The kindness of friends never ceases to
amaze me; it often makes me squeal and jump for joy or makes my heart feel all
warm and fuzzy. This week was a
particularly exciting week where I had a down moment over a friendship lost a
long time ago (no that's not the exciting part!!) followed by several of my
closest friends doing random little special things for me. I guess one of the special things about
friendship is that love is given at the perfect time, just when you really need
a pick me up and its amazing that it happens unknowingly of what’s been
happening.
This week I had three awesome friendship
moments. A friend I met at my hometown drove
for seven hours to do a few things down here but also visited me at work for
lunch. Another hometown friend drove from an hour away for dinner and to sit on
the couch and do some sewing and then had to drive all the way back home to get
up for work the following morning. And
then my uni friend Michelle delivered a costume I had let her borrow and left
it on my front door step (I was out).
But she didn’t just deliver the costume, she delivered this bag o’ cupcakey
cutie patootie goodness with a cute hand written note on the brown paper
packaging.
Now this was the cutest little packager to come
home to! Firstly words cannot explain
how much I love brown paper packaging and cute little gift bags (they always
hold fabulous treats, edible or not) and secondly some of my friends would say
I am a little cupcake OCD. Well I’m not
OCD but I am very much obsessed with anything cupcakes- I love their frosted
swirls and more than swirls I love glitter, jimmies, sprinkles, pearls and
edible diamonds (the list is far more extensive than that though). So coming
home to a cupcake on my front door step was the most epic moment of my week and
I actually squealed I was so excited. It
was a gluten free mudcake cupcake with gorgeous purpley pink icing and
glittering specks of dance worthy disco queen glitter. And I sure danced and pranced around the
garden with my cupcake and even took it for a little garden photo shoot.
I loved receiving this lil cutie on my
doorstep and the lengths my friends go to in order to make my day/week special really
inspire me. Friends are there for you to
chat to whenever, they tell you exactly how it is, they give you new insights
to life, teach you, inspire you to be a better person, make you laugh, make you
smile, but most of all they love you for you.
Friendship is beautiful and something I cherish.
