And apparently they heart me too. I've received the fruit of the month club for several years, my mom gets it for me for Christmas every year.
When I received this giant box and the note on the outside, that basically says "we love you and want you to have a much bigger more expensive package this month..."I was initially dubious. I've received "replacement" packages from them in the past and it was a box of shortbread cookies or something--lame when you are expecting a whole pineapple, or 5 fresh nectarines.
So I opened the box and here's what I found--boo hoo...

Summer sausage is only so exciting to a vegetarian, and I don't want candy and cheese from Harry & David, I want FRUIT! But then I kept digging and found these--yeah!!!

So in the end it was a great surprise and much bigger than the normal little box of pears I would have received. I wonder what the real reason was for them sending me all this stuff, leftovers from a slow holiday season? That's ok with me.
I'm going to try an upside down pear cake, so the fate of a couple of those pears is hopefully an elegant one.
BTW, the movie night bars were a HUGE success. Maybe the second best reception ever, second only to the chocolate crinkle cookies.
