I love being a teacher. Not only do I feel the satisfaction and accomplishment of teaching other people how to play piano, I think it's really surprising when I get a card or a gift from them.
Yesterday, one of my students gave me a gift!
It came with a really nifty card that has a game of "Tic Tac Snow" on it. Basically, you can move the trees and the snowmen to play tic tac toe with it! There are even 3 extra pieces at the bottom that you can punch out and play with. Being the type of person that is easily amused by small things, I thought the card was brilliant. There was also a cute snowman on the envelope too.
The gift turned out to be a mug filled with yummy goodies from Starbucks! There's hot chocolate mix, biscotti, chocolate, etc. And a lovely brown bow. Soooo delicious.
Here's a close-up of the mug!
I think it's precious. I love how there's marshmallows over an open fire. Burnt marshmallows are one of my favourite things to eat (everyone thinks I'm gross when I eat my marshmallows that way but I can't help it... it's so crunchy on the outside and so runny and gooey and sticky on the inside... mmmmmm).
My student and her family don't know this but Starbucks is currently my favourite coffee stop. I've never tried anything from Starbucks and disliked it. I would be an extremely happy woman if I could drink Pumpkin Spice Lattes and Pumpkin Spice Fraps every day while eating a Pumpkin Scone.
