I want to say a big THANK YOU to Ang for the package I received this morning in the mail all the way from Australia.  What a lovely and thoughtful surprise.  You really are a sweetheart Andy!!!!

Yep, there's some vegemite and candy and an apron (now Ang, is that a hint for me to get back in the kitchen and get out of the restaurants???), and a keychain and a dish towel and some coasters with scenes of Melbourne and a nice note and BEST OF ALL,  massive amounts of thoughtfulness.  I truly do believe that it's the little things in life that make it special and Ang made my day today very special indeed.

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning how to dance in the rain.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

Yeah, I've had both vegemite AND marmite.  I can eat them although I can't say I love them.  The biggest issue is the salt for me.  Ang sent me a little snack pack with a few crackers and a small sampling of the vegemite so I'm strategizing about when would be the best time to try it again.
