(I did have to eat some to make sure they were good) and leaving them at the door of the group home where my daughter lives. I called ahead and told the lady that they were for staff, not for the three residents, because we love them (staff) and appreciate what they're doing.

Now I'm thinking about leaving a dozen or so in a box in the mailbox for our delivery person, and a box on top of the trash can on the next trash pickup day, with notes of appreciation for their work.
