My high school french came back on me a little upon reading that. Like a bad burrito. Would the delivery person just leave the pckg or come back later? I was a mailman for a couple years and you'd see stuff like that every once in a while in the smaller towns. Some of us would be helpful, some wouldn't.
first off - I love this post. Second. You got married! Oh! I'm so happy for you - I was catching up on your blog and was..like... The Husband? The husband! Happy belated Wedding! Sending you the best from OKC ;)
That's hilarious. Tell, do you have a local newspaper? I always find these kind of reads enormously uplifting. I have tagged you in a happiness meme: http://www.metropolitanmum.co.uk/2010/05/spread-the-blogging-love/
Around here it makes no difference anyway - if we're not in, delivery drivers here just leave stuff by the back door. The next nearest back door is half mile away so I suppose unless the local wildlife wants to pinch it we are pretty safe!
Does that mean: Look for me or come back soon or the doors open and please close the door when you are done?!
ReplyDeleteThat is so hilarious! Classic, just classic.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame that we can longer even think of doing that in the States.
ReplyDeleteLove that
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteSo carefree and alive... I wish I had that lifestyle!

ReplyDeleteAnd that is why I want to leave big city living for a nice quaint village. You are so lucky!

Great note.

Wonder what the delivery was? Certainly not six-packs, lol.
ReplyDeleteLe village must be petit indeed!
