I came to Blogger an hour ago intending to put up a post. I got stuck jumping from blog to blog and reading and leaving comments.
So all you get now are some pics.
BIKSS came by to pick up some antihistamines for his hives.
I left them outside beside the fittonias.
He said he had something for me so I peeped thru the door when he got here, because I didn't want to pass anything to him, I mean, just in case right? And had him leave the parcel by the front door before I shooed him back into the elevater.
I found these in the bag.
One parcel contained a table-top globe I had asked for last Christmas. I totally forgot all about it so it was a fantastic surprise. My geography sucks. You don't know HOW badly it sucks. As a joke we thought I might benefit from having one of these. And then it actually began sounding like a seriously good idea the more we talked about it. So ta-da! It spins and it tilts. It's adorable.
The other box contained a black mug. Only, I figured it had a pour-hot-water-to-see image. I held it up under the lamp and could sorta make out the pony, but not the details. So I ran into the kitchen to make myself an orange tisane. It's adorbs! Perfect for cheering me up this week!
My chip pic today ~
Fine they're not quite chips. As in, not crisps. But they count as chips, as in fish-and right? Only they're waffle cut. And loaded with other stuff.
I must be hungry. I could go for some of that right about now.

how sweet of BIKSS to drop off some surprises!! I adore the coffee mug!! bet the gifts brightened up your day :)
ReplyDeleteThey did! That's going to be my warm-beverage mug from now on. My iced drinks can go in the regular mugs!
DeleteHi Fondles, glad to hear BIKSS must be over the bug. That was so sweet of him, love the mug. Cute :)

Sometimes he gets it SO right!
DeleteLove the mug. I have one like that, that reveals a map of the world.

That's like my mug and my globe in ONE!
DeleteCute mug!
ReplyDeleteI got my husband one of those "pic shows when you pour hot drink" kind of mugs once. He used it once then wrecked it. (It is not meant to be put in the dishwasher!) *sigh*
And I think fish and chips sound really good right now, so I must be hungry too! ;)
No chance of that happening here as I don't have a dishwasher. So in a way that's a good thing? LOL. But thanks for the heads up.
Deletei don't think one needs to be hungry for chippies. It's an 'anytime' food in my opinion.
What lovely surprises from BIKKS. I love the mug, I must find one. We are looking for a globe for Granddaughter.
ReplyDeleteLove,

I think Amazon! Good luck finding it!
DeleteLittle unexpected gifts are so much fun! I love that globe especially. Glad you're still feeling good.
ReplyDeleteI hope i continue to test negative. I can't imagine what will happen if I get sick AFTER they're done with their Covid. It'll be like a double dose of quarantine. Goodness.
DeleteA globe! Why I never thought I'd see one of those again! I thought they all went the way of the dinosaur.......or handset phone. I always liked the color palette of the one you got. They remind me of a refined old office/den whereas the blue colorful ones make me think of a classroom. I just hope yours stays current with regards to Ukraine.
ReplyDeleteOh I like this colour too. I think it's less glaring than the blue ones. I'll have to look into this Ukraine business!
DeleteI like the globe too, but it will probably need updating frequently. My M-I-L had an old one, and my goodness, how the world has changed!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Gah that's the thing about things that document and map the world. It keeps on having to be updated. But for now, I'll just settle for knowing where the main continents are. Those aren't likely to shift too drastically in my lifetime :)
