The Kindness of a Thank You Treat

"The purest and thoughtful minds are those which love color the most."
~ John Ruskin

On a recent weekend, one of my children was invited to a birthday party at a location some distance from where we live.  Another mother suggested that we carpool, so she took a group of children to the party, and I picked them up and took them home.  When we arrived at the house of one of the girls, her mother was standing outside with a small ramekin filled with delicious treats -- Manchego cheese and crushed almond-covered quince skewers.  She gave them to me as a thank you for bringing her daughter.  I was floored by this mother's thoughtfulness -- and culinary creativity.
