I received a little bag of goodies from a co-worker today. Attached to it was this note explaining it's contents. I thought it was neat.
Bugles: Shaped like a cornucopia or Horn of Plenty, a symbol of our nation's abundance.
Pretzels: Arms folded in prayer, a freedom sought by those who founded our country.
Candy Corn: Sacrifices of the Pilgrims' first winter. Food was so scarce that settlers survived on just a few kernels of corn a day.
Seeds: Promise of a future harvest, one we will reap only if seeds are planted and tended with care.
Dried fruits: Harvest gifts of our bountiful land.
M&M: Memories of those who came before us to a blessed future.
Hershey's Kiss: The love of family and friends that sweetens our lives.
The bag contained a bit of each of the things listed.
