Write about the most recent gift you gave
someone.
I swear I wrote about this gift a while back,
but I will write about it again. I loved
the gift. I loved the gift so much that I bought it for me as well. Originally, the gift came to me first, and she
bought one for herself. A bit
complicated.
Two years ago, my sister, her friend, and I went
to England. With my health issues, I
usually rested in the evening while they wandered. In London, they went to Harrods. Now, I had never heard of the store until our
trip. I was educated that this was a
famous department store. Since I didn’t
go, my sister bought me a key ring and a really nice pen. She bought herself a pen as well.
Now, both of us fell in love with this pen. For over a year, we used them. No one else was allowed to use them. They fit the hand perfect and the ink is just
the best. They are a thin sleek black cylinder
with Harrods written on the side. At the
top is a silver crown with a “diamond” inside the crown. This summer my sister announced the death of
her pen. I panicked. Mine would be next.
In November, I went shopping online. You guessed it. I found the pens on the Harrods website. I ordered more for both of us. I also ordered us some shortbread. Sure, I would have preferred to fly over and
shopped in person, but this was the next best thing. The joy on her face was priceless when she
opened the shortbread to find two new pens inside. The gift was well worth the extra shipping.
