No, this is not yet another ode to Honeycrisps, my friends—the kind of apple of which  I newly enamored is not edible. After a very pleasant customer service experience, I have newfound loyalty to Apple, the makers of the iPod.

So you remember Nadine the Nano? I welcomed her into my iPod family last Christmas, as Nestor was starting to crap out on me. Unfortunately, Nadine only lasted a few months before her play/pause button ceased to function. I’ve been relying on Nestor for workout tunes ever since.

However, Nadine’s short lifespan really irked me, so I finally visited the Apple website to look into how to get her working again. I submitted a simple service request form, took her to UPS to send her to the Apple HQ (free of charge, I might add), and waited for a response. Within a few days, I learned that Nadine was a hopeless cause, and Apple would be sending me a free replacement iPod via overnight shipping. Yikes! I never expected such a happy result.

And now, I present to you Nanette the Nano (named after one of my favorite clothing designers).

All of this is to say that Apple, you kind of rocked my world this week. Thank you.

What was the last pleasant customer service experience you had? Did it convince you to be loyal to that brand/company?

I want to get to work loading up Nanette with all my songs, so let’s get crackin’.

Banana Breakfast Pudding was on the menu for breakfast, this time with peanut butter instead of coconut butter.

For lunch, I packed a wrap with Dilled Egg Salad.

Once home for dinner, I realized I had a drawer full of veggies just begging to be roasted. Hence, ginormous pile of said veggies made up my dinner.

With that, I bid you good night!
