Dreyer's Cookies and Cream. Don't care for that flavor much, except this brand. Which I am eating between keystrokes. :-)

The amazing, astounding, humbling generosity of my employees. As a company, we adopted a children's emergency shelter for Christmas. Even with the layoffs, personal belt-tightening, and uncertainty of recent days, they still came through. Blankets, shampoos, soaps, toothpastes, cleaning supplies, baby wipes, vitamins, crayons, not to mention three iPod Shuffles from the boss and on and on... Two lined and decorated and stuffed this electronics chest that's been gathering dust in the warehouse for two years. Another gathered four of her grandkids and delivered the chest today. Her husband lost his job and they are behind on everything, but it was important to her that the grandlings understand how very lucky they are in comparison. I am teary-eyed proud of each and every one.
