She saw these randomly on the internet, and bought them for me:

(please overlook the mugstain I just noticed):
I was seriously flabbergasted.
I asked her why would she do such a thing, and she said because "people don't do nice things for other people enough any more". And I can honestly say she does more for other people than many. She is daily making so many people smile and laugh, just steady brightening days left and right, probably without even realizing it. One of my favourite quotes of hers is "thank every fuckin body" because that's how big this woman's heart is.
Customers have told her that her name doesn't suit her personality. So we asked the very next customer what they thought her name should be, and the lady thought a second and responded "Lola" which is PERFECT so Imma call her Lola from now on. =}
The person who originally made the point also then renamed me too, and her first choice was Vanilla, to which I recall I said something about apples. She then changed it to Cinnamon. Because my face is always blushing, she said. Dunno if I could pull off such a spicy name though...
