Day 44
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope
that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, 'I used
everything you gave me'.

Pizza Chain Makes Special Delivery for Soldier in Afghanistan
(Special Thanks to Tennille Philips for Sending me this story)
Army National Guard Maj. Shawn Fulker is thousands of miles away serving
in Afghanistan, and when his wife's birthday came around, he decided he
wanted to do something very special.
Josephine Fulker loves Mellow Mushroom pizza,
so her husband emailed Mellow Mushroom's corporate website on Thursday
to ask whether one of the company's Jacksonville stores could deliver a
pizza and a $50 gift card to his wife at their Jacksonville, Fla., home.
If they could, he said, he would call the store and pay for it with his
credit card.
Mellow Mushroom did one better. Unbeknownst to Shawn Fulker, a local
Mellow Mushroom franchise was working to make his request even more
memorable.
"We had the cook make a heart-shaped pizza, and then we stopped by the
nearest Publix (supermarket) to get flowers and then we picked up
balloons, just to kind of make it special," Brooke Chafee, a manager at
the Jacksonville store, told ABCNews.com on Monday evening.
Chafee and another employee of the store made the special delivery -
which included the $50 gift card to Mellow Mushroom - in person to
Fulker's home on Thursday. They didn't charge Shawn Fulker a thing.
