Blessed by a bounty

I think everyone delights in a bit of unexpected love. Those gifts that aren't agreed upon, anticipated or written in the contract. Our house has brought at least three, so far. Pond with big red fish (more on this one day soon). Pink magnolia tree. And mandarins! So many mandarins. We are giving them away to everyone we know. We are eating them every afternoon. We are cooking with them (actually have tried three recipes...all of which were not good). And we are balancing every visiting child on our shoulders, to pick one especially for themselves. A great gift to us from our home.
