Wonderful surprises!

What a great day! Classes were good but beyond that I had two lovely surprises! A good friend at school gave me the most wonderful present, 4 beautiful scarves! And she made them herself. I was so touched I cried in the staffroom. Then when I got home, my friend in Reno had sent me three packages of dry fruits to help me along with my diet. I have only ever heard of the cherries. There were also tropical Mangosteens and Dragon fruit. As I write this I am going to open them and have one of each. First the tropical mangosteen. Surprising! A wonderful subtle fruity flavour and crispy, almost melt in your mouth. Now for the dragon fruit. They are large and purple, verging on black. Also crispy with a suble but tarter flavour. Now for the cherries, morello cherries. According to the package they are quite tart and full of flavour. They are also very small. Yes, the package was correct. I love all of these and am going to take them to school for my snacks. Yum!
