My Gardener Rocks!

Last Christmas Eve, I was surprised in the late afternoon by the doorbell. There stood my gardener, who handed me a bag of warm, homemade tamales. What a gift!

Since I only rehired him at my new house a couple of weeks ago, and haven't even paid him for any service yet, I doubted I would be receiving the same thing this year. But this afternoon, the doorbell rang, and there he was again!

I remember how good the tamales were last year, so I can't wait for dinner tonight. YUM!
