I went to the grocery store yesterday and bought 60 carnations for $20. I plan to hit up another store tonight for another 60 or so. Really, you can't beat that price. I have a few people from Philadelphia who are going to join me in my NICE-spreading event! If you live in/around the area and would like to stop by, we'll be at Rittenhouse Square at 1:30. I'll be sporting my "Practice Kindness" t-shirt, as long as I remember to bring it with me to work.
And if you're nowhere near Philadelphia but still want to participate, you can always click here to download the flower tags and pass some out in your own town. Or you can find your own special way to celebrate the anniversary of Operation NICE.
Like super-NICE Jennifer Marr, who copied me on an email that she sent to her coworkers this morning. She explained to them what Operation NICE is and wrote, "Tomorrow morning, in honour of that anniversary…and to just be extra nice to all of you wonderful people…I’d like to buy each one of you a beverage from Tim Horton’s. Tea, coffee, juice, water, etc….anything you’d like! Hopefully that will start your day out with a smile on your face! So before the end of the day today, please send me your order so I am sure to bring you what you like!"
How sweet is that?! Thanks Jennifer, for playing along and making July 15th an extra-NICE day!
EDIT: By the way, if you do something special tomorrow, please take a picture or make a video or something and I'll share it will everyone here! THANKS!

Jennifer, what a fantastic idea. if only there was a Tim Horton's in my area!
I think I'm going to run to the grocery store and pick up tootsie pops for my coworkers.
Thanks for this, Melissa. Just thinking about it makes me smile. Happy anniversary, Operation Nice!
Hmm Jennifer's idea is pretty neat. I might just get my co-workers something tomorrow too. I'll have to think about that!
Congratulations on Operation Nice´s anniversary! I love it that you´re stimulating the creation of many, many pink clouds for everyone to sit on. (that´s the metaphor I like to use, I love to be seated on my pink cloud and just see the world with a smile)
Huge congratulations for making the world a better place! :)
