December 17, 2007  The Blog Catalogue is giving a challenge out to all bloggers to write about a Kind Act they have performed.

Here’s my post:

The last couple of weeks, my friends have requested that no presents be given for Christmas. I also have a few friends that I am buying for or that we are exchanging gifts so – I decided to do some baking. (I am surprised how many people I know don’t like baking??)

After making my famous Rum Butter tarts, Shortbread, Date squares, Biscotti, Pumpkin tarts and some cookies I have now packaged them all up in boxes and goody bags.

I gave away about five goody bags to people that sell street papers in the Farmers Market, wished them a Merry Christmas!

I felt good and it was nice to see a smile on their faces. Giving feels great.. it’s a great high!

On November 13th, which is World Kindness Day – I gave away about 20 hearts (I make them) that say ‘Smile’ on them. My idea was that people would share their smiles with other people. It was interesting to note that people gave away the Smiling Hearts away and forgot about their “Smiles’

That was fun to do as well!

Now it’s your turn to do a Kind Deed and write about it. Go to: www.blogcatalogue.com.

Or you can drop a comment on to me and I will post it here.

Until next time, much

Happiness & Success
