Today, Ali and I broke the rules a little bit.  Instead of making a snack for someone, we only had time to buy a snack.  My grandma was feeling sick with a bad case of bronchitis, so Ali and I went to Walgreens to buy some cough drops and a huge bucket of peppermints.  If you've never had a pepper mint with a sore throat, try it.  An excellent remedy, in my opinion.

We left a little Post-It note inside the peppermint bucket, basically telling my Nawnie to feel better soon and that we loved her.  We dropped the gift off at her house.  I know our little "snack" completely and totally made my grandma's day.  She lives alone, and I know that being sick is a miserable feeling, especially when your throat hurts and you just can't stop coughing.  I enjoyed helping out my grandma and making her feel special.

What did you do for today's challenge?

Haven't heard of the 30 Days of Kindness?  Click here to find out more.  Just starting?  That's okay!  Feel free to start this challenge right in the middle.  You can make up the days you missed through November, if you like.

Make a snack for your friends.  Tell me that this wouldn't brighten your day if a friend baked a lovely batch of cookies and brought them to share with you for lunch.  It would be an exciting feeling, right?  Sharing a delicious snack is a kind gesture that anyone would appreciate. 

I will not limit this gesture, however.  If you would like to make a snack and take it to a nursing home, children's hospital, fire department, or preschool, that will count.  If you want to make a snack for two or more groups, that will also count.  I would love to hear about who you gave your snack, so please comment your story and potential pictures below. 

I have a feeling that this may be a favorite kind gesture so far.

I want to hear your stories!  Leave me a comment and share what you did during today's challenge.  If you have a picture or two, feel free to send them to me.  If you're blogging about today, send me the link and I'll feature it on this blog.

Stay tuned until later today to see what my friends and I did for today's act of kindness.

TOMORROW: Leave an encouraging note for a friend
