Edible Arrangements

During the funeral week in San Jose, Tim and I ran around town none stop everyday trying to put together the memorial service for grandpa like everyone else in my big family. One afternoon we felt compelled to go visit grandma. After all, she is left behind, forced to live on alone without her lifelong partner. We wanted to make grandma feel better (even though that was highly impossible during a time like this), so we stopped by an Edible Arrangements store near downtown and got a little fruit bouquet on the way to her apartment.
Grandma was touched and liked the way it looked, unfortunately, she refused to open the wrapper and eat the fruits inside. She convinced us to bring it back for the other relatives. After many back-n-forth conversations, we finally obeyed, thinking that right now she should have the right to have things her way. And she really should.
Anyways, so this was the fruit bouquet from Edible, when it arrived at my uncle's house, everyone (10+ ppl) was astonished at the sight of this beauty. They all crowded around to take pictures of it as if a movie star had arrived. It was quite hilarious.
This picture was taken by my cousin, I just got it from him today.
