boy, she's good to you!
That's what Kelly said after I dropped off Jill's May Day basket because I came back from her porch with this cute box full of ALL VANILLA tootsie rolls (a favorite!!). Generosity seems to be the topic today, and Jill is one of those truly generous people who gives you anything she can. I have left her house with a fresh batch of cookie dough, chicken to make dinner,
new cards, clothes for my kids... and if I have not had something in my hands (though I would be hard pressed to remember such a time) I have had strength, comfort, sympathy or laughter in my heart.
I don't want to embarrass Jill by gushing again. I could gush about many of you! I just want to add my two cents by saying that generosity fuels generosity! and gratitude! and happiness... and I feel so blessed to be part of this reciprocal neighborhood where the simplest of gestures makes all the difference!

Oh go on...
By the way, when Marc came home from work and saw the basket from you, the flower arrangement, and the basket from Amy all on the kitchen table, he said, "Man, I need some friends like that." Well, doesn't everyone? I do consider myself so very lucky!
you are very right about Jill. She is one of the most generous individuals i know. It is rare I leave her house without something...even something as simple as crackers to tide over my kids as we make the drive home.
And no michelle, most people don't. You are a lucky group.
oh yes i love those vanilla .
the vanilla laffy taffys are great too!
i don't know where to find either of them though. maybe it is just utah.
Jill is wonderful, I agree. I love your May Day baskets, again so fun.
