I'm always amazed at some of the hosts I get (in a good way!). Last night the husband was giving his family some of his garden grown (apparently blue ribbon winning) green beans. The host piped up and said "maybe you would like some too, we have plently!". Of course I'm not one to turn down beautiful, thick home-grown green beans! She sent me home with two ziploc bags full of them.
On my way home I got to thinking that's not the first time hosts have done that. One gave me a couple packs of Arnold's Thin Buns after she did one of those advertising parties but knew her family wouldn't eat them. Another gave me a kitchen mat (luckily not the one off her floor) after I mentioned how nice it felt under my feet as I was doing dishes. She ran into the next room and grabbed another one saying she had picked up a bunch on clearance at the store!
Figured since I was bored at work, I'd see if anyone else had fun things like this happen.
