Bananarama

Meet Vanessa and her hubby, Michael. You can call him Mike.

Nessa was my friend back in the High School days…and thanks to Facebook/Blogging – we have kept in touch across the miles.

One of my fondest teen memories is of her. We got in a chocolate pudding fight….in my parents living room. If any of you need another reason to think my mother is a Saint….the fact that I am still alive is yet another testament.

My love for Vanessa grew exponentially on the day we returned home from Summer vacation. There was a package waiting for me.

She read my post about my love of banana runts…so what does she do? She mails me a 2 pound bag of them!

A little bit of trivia for you….2 pounds of banana runts feels like the equivalent of holding a 6 pound newborn. Odd.

There is nothing better than receiving an unexpected surprise in the mail…especially on the last day of vacation.

Thanks for thinking of us, Ness. They are delicious! You are the best!

I still can’t believe you did that for me.

Now that I know you are paying attention…I think I will make my next blog about my love for Le Creuset cookware.
