Hi Tim!
I got your e-mail today encouraging me to buy Sunbeam Bread. As you said,
Every year beginning just after Thanksgiving, Sunbeam Bread reaches out to remind its customers that Christmas is a time to "reflect on our beliefs and remember those around us, especially those less fortunate." For 75 years, Sunbeam has put their faith into action by labeling their bread packages with an iconic image of Little Miss Sunbeam kneeling with folded hands and praying Jesus' words in Matthew 4:4, "Not by bread alone."
The image is just plain precious.
You encouraged me to send an email and thank Sunbeam for their annual message. Not to make excuses, the Christmas season always seems to sap my strength. In addition to all the hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping and having to fight the extra traffic through town around the malls, at the office, our busiest time of the year is the fourth quarter, and I'm bushed. I had to be at the office this morning an hour and a half earlier than my normal time. That might not seem like a lot, but trust me, I'm no early bird. So I'm just writing to you, and then I'm going to bed. I'll hope that Sunbeam gets lots of e-mails from your folks.
Besides, I've mentioned, on more than one occasion, that my husband does the shopping for the house. He wouldn't buy Sunbeam bread. He always buys some multi-grain stuff that's supposed to be "good" for us. He's a real nutrition nut. And on top of that, he chunks the bread into the freezer. He only pulls the loaf out every two weeks or so to make us grilled cheese sandwiches with our tomato soup. So see, we don't use a lot of bread. And I couldn't buy Sunbeam Bread this year anyway, unless I went to the grocery store myself. And that ain't gonna happen! LOL
At any rate, I'm off to bed. Hope Sunbeam sells a lot of bread this Christmas season.
Here's wishing you the best, Tim.
Yours in Christ,
Jason
