29-Day Giving Challenge

I bought coffee for a co-worker who complains about contributing to gifts (like when you go in on a gift for someone who's expecting, or undergoing surgery, etc). Our team is large enough that contribution is always $5 or less, so sometimes I wonder why she doesn't want to contribute towards someones gift. (no religious reasons, just doesn't want to 'spend' money--although she loves to shop--her perogative, of course). I surprised her with a latte, just the way she likes them. It was worth the bewilderment I caused, she was genuinely confused by my generosity.
I also brought in chocolates to share at our weekly meeting.
