Fate of the Strawberry Chocolate Phone

Until a few weeks ago, I owned and used (frequently!) Verizon's Strawberry Chocolate phone. When it first came out, I had to have it-- it was pink, cute and only available online. So I bought it. Without really considering professional world-- I quickly learned: a bright pink phone gets a lot of looks, especially when working in a field dominated by men (military, former military and union leaders). To say the least, I felt out of place taking my bright pink phone on meetings.

So I ditched it. And I am now the proud owner of a non-pink, silver phone.

I decided, some other girl should have the joy of a pink phone, so I passed it on to Sofie-- an adorable 5 year-old that loves tons icing on cookies. She has a sweet tooth, nothin' wrong with that :) She adopted my Strawberry Chocolate phone.

I received this thank you note the next day-- and found out that we share more than a sweet tooth:



Yes-- like me-- she enjoys taking pictures!

I am elated. I may not be able to carry that cute little phone around anymore, but I know that it is in a happy home.
