Hi CR!
You should have your honey tomorrow! While everyone else was raising their prices, the local nutrition store lowered hers! (It is UMF 12+, the last batch was 15+ but it is still plenty strong to kill almost any infection). I don't know the gals name, but she is always working in the "Natures Marketplace" here in North Bend. Really nice gal. She used to annoy me by always pushing multi-vitamins, but last year I got a new respect for her - before my kids went to Camp Orkila, we went there and I got them each a toothpaste, a Dr. Bonner Castile soap, shampoo, and conditioner and myself a bottle of vitamin D. Went up to the counter with my load, and she started putting it all back on the shelf and switched the Dr. Bonner for the mint scent. I asked what she was doing and she said "Saving you money - you can use this castille soap for everything, and if you use the mint, you can even brush your teeth with it!" then she switched my $23 bottle of vitamins for an $8 bottle "Where you won't have to pay for an expensive advertising campaign." (The kids were not happy about the soap toothpaste and made sure to tell me when they got back.)
Anyways, I told her I was buying the honey to send it to a friend, so she wrapped it all up and put it in a box and told me I had to include a note with it and pulled out a bunch of colored pens and an index card. Then she said I needed to draw pictures on the note since it was just on a blank card. I refused that, so after much pushing, she dug through a stack of papers and came up with a list of profound thoughts and said "Well, if you aren't going to color the card, you have to ast least put this in it! I started reading it and decided I wanted to keep it myself. She looked all flustered so I promised her I would tell them all to you, just one a day. She seemed satisfied with that and then taped the box shut for me so I could take it to the post office. I swear, if there had not been a line behind me, I don't think I would have been able to get out of there without decorating your card!
so, here is #1: Don't argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with his experience.
