I've received two Edible Arrangements this week

[Bertha Venation]

as get-well gifts. One from my sisters on Saturday; the other today from the folks at work.

I'm now swimming in fruit: cantaloupe and honeydew, oranges, grapes, strawberries, and chocolate-dipped strawberries and bananas. Fortunately we're having friends over tomorrow, so we can share the fruit with them in a big salad. Yum.

Have you ever sent or received an Edible Arrangement?

1. I have not, but it sounds wonderful

Did you take photos before you dove in?

2. Well, hell. Of course not.

I didn't even think of it. I could take a picture of the salad tomorrow, though...

3. They were founded in a strip-mall across the street from my high school.

We used to send and receive them all the time back then...they were super cheap, like 1/3 what they are now. That was only 15 years ago.

8. Cool.

Mrs. V. and I were wondering how and when they got started. Now at least we know when.

5. I recently sent one. It was expensive!

I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed yours because I don't know how they liked the one I sent. I sent it to the physical therapy department that got me up and moving after my accident. They really went out of their way to help me, even coming in before and after hours. I thought they would enjoy it--- who doesn't love chocolate dipped fruit? LOL

That was a very nice thing to do. Yeah, they are pricey, but so appreciated.
