neighborly spirit

Since we've moved in here most of the neighbors have come over to say hi and welcome us to the neighborhood. Today though, it was a little different. About 1 in the afternoon the doorbell rang. I answered the door (in my cow spotted pajama top and pink lounging pants with monkeys on them) and there was a little old lady. She said she lived across the street and wanted to welcome us to the neighborhood by bringing by one of her homemade fruitcakes. WOW! She was very nice and she stayed to chat for a few minutes before going back home. It was very old fashioned of her to bring sweet goodies to welcome us - but I liked it.
I'm eating a slice of the cake now, and I must say...fruitcake is disgusting! It's too sweet and kind of soggy. I feel bad saying that because she was so nice to make a cake and bring it over. :( I hope Bob likes it.
