Pay It Forward



My package from Linda came today. She offered to send a gift to the first five people that left a comment promising to pay it forward. I was one of the five!! I got Colorado chocolate covered apples! Colorado peaches and chocolate! Does this lady know me or what. She also sent a book about her area, town, and Delta titled: Antoine Robidoux and Fort Uncompahgre by Ken Reyher with a beautiful bookmark. My favorite and what I have soaking at this very moment are beans from her garden! Thank you so much for doing the pay it forward Linda. What a blessing to find your wonderful package in my mailbox. My five pay it forwards will be getting their packages the first of the week. What fun to put a smile on their faces because of your wonderful gift!

I am so happy you got your package! You are the only one who responded that it arrived so I was glad to know.

You laid out the things in such a neat way for the photo! :)

We will be planting several acres more of the Bill Zee beans again this spring, I would be glad to send you another bag come fall. Just let me know.

Hey Peggy did you get hit with the snow storm that moved up the Eastern Seaboard?? If so I hope everyone is safe and sound!
Take care

That is such a neat idea! I may just have to do this myself one day! I love the quote, " Pay it forward". Was a great movie too!
