It's like Christmas

Or my birthday.

A few days back, I got my first freebie in the mail. Two actually. One was for free cat litter (I know we don't have a cat, but it will be good for oil spills in the shed) and the other was for some popcorn rice-cake like snack (which was okay).

Then yesterday my mom sent me three books (all for my birthday). One was on my list, the other two were suggested reading from her.







And then today, the UPS guy sent a cooler full of hamburgers! They're for the whole family, but hey, I'm still gonna eat some!

Wonder what tomorrow will bring?

A cooler full of burgers?? For real??? I didnt know you could order take out like that and have UPS deliver.

Hmmmm....... even THIS far out in the sticks we get UPS delivery. Hmmmm...... can we order pizza or Chinese food too?

Happy Birthday from your Mom

The burgers were from Omaha Steaks (http://www.omahasteaks.com). This is our second order and we're pleased so far. It's not something we do on a regular basis as the local Costco has cheaper meat, but when they give you free money to spend, it's hard to turn down.

My sister sent my husband a pizza from Chicago via UPS for his birthday-it was awesome! Food delivered right to your front door-gotta love it.

Oh, and Happy Birthday, TK!
