onions

During break this morning I saw a freshman in the hall with a bag of onions.  She was on her way to my classroom.  She held up the bag and said it was my Christmas gift.  I looked at her, looked at the onions. . . . thought, yea, right!  This is a first.  I didn't know if it wa s joke or what.  I probably didn't react too enthusiastically, because she said "No, really.  They are for you.  My dad grows onions and sent them for you." So we have a small sack of onions to enjoy this Christmas.  I was able to recover somewhat, told her that onions were on my grocery list because the one I had cut for our stirfry last night was bad in the middle.
 
Probably better than the 70% cocoa with flakes of espresso beans bar of chocolate that was in my mailbox this morning.
 
Love, AK-Mom
