Thoughtful

A surprise, early Christmas gift from my Japanese teacher - kind of pot pourri mini tree that is now taking pride of place in my dining table. It was really very kind and I suspect something of a bribe offered as encouragement for me to do my homework!! I suspect I shall simply invest in some traditional British Fayre from the local branch of Fortnum & Mason's as a return gift! ;)

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery. And today? Today is a gift. That's why we call it the present.
