Last week, I was searching Twitter to see who was talking about Fairytale Brownies and I came across a great story. I discovered two twitterers, Beth and Jewel, who made a real connection talking about tea and our Raspberry Swirl brownie. I couldn't resist sharing with you how our gourmet chocolate brownie gifts helped build a friendship, in their own words.

Jewel (@thetinyjewelbox): I was on twitter and one of my followers, a tea company, tweeted about her “tea of the week,” called Chocolate Rasberry Razzle Dazzle. I told her that with a name like that, I couldn’t resist. Another person (Beth), who I didn’t know, tweeted back to me “wow, we had the same idea. I ordered some too.” 

I asked if she had ever had Fairytale's raspberry brownie. She had never heard of Fairytale. I sent her to the website and she said they looked yummy. Completely on a whim, I asked her for her address and told her I would send her some. She sent it to me, and within 5 minutes I had ordered a dozen brownies online for her. She was in tears that a complete stranger would do something like that and then went on to share that she had been having a terrible day. I assured her that I hadn’t gotten up with a plan to send brownies to a stranger, but it just so happens that it worked out. 

Beth (@teaandthee): A very neat thing happened to me this past week, an act that will never be forgotten. Through my searches on twitter I have found some great tea companies selling all sorts of tea. One of them blends a new flavor of tea every week. This week it was Chocolate Raspberry, which was calling my name. So I decided to order some and I posted on twitter that I did. By chance another person on twitter (Jewel) also ordered the tea and saw my post. She added me as a follower and we started chatting. I was having a rough day and we were talking about it.

Jewel told me about these great raspberry chocolate brownies from a company called Fairytale Brownies. I told her that they sounded yummy and jokingly said she could buy me some anytime. She told me to send her my address and she would send me some. I sent her my address and on Thursday my brownies arrived. Let me tell you they are YUMMY. I wrote Jewel back that day with tears in my eyes and told her how much I appreciated her generosity and kindness. We have chatted many times since and I feel we have formed a friendship.

Thanks for sharing your story Jewel and Beth! It is great to hear how a gift of Fairytale Brownies helped bring you together.
