Mom and I had a lovely dinner tonight. When I asked Mom what her secret was, she said Wine. I thought just the other day she was telling me she doesn't care for whine. I'm still mulling it over. Mullet!
Incidentally, Mom's been dropping birthday hints like crazy today..perhaps more wine? not whine. A candle to make the house cozy? Not a big one, but a Christmas cookie/vanilla or cinnamon something or another. A houseplant for the new room? I'd like to see you ship that from Switzerland.
Onto the subject of shipping things, we need to rethink our strategy. Mom and I stopped at the post office today and the flat rate box is tiny.
So Dad, I bet you thought Mom was going to hijack this post today to tell you about her shopping, since it was coupon day and all. I guess the thought of arranging it all for a picture was too much, but stay tuned for an email with all the details and next week...the big cereal sale! I'll see if I can make a tower of Chex for the camera.
More Burgers! All right!! I have to say the thing I miss most here is American grocery stores. They have spoiled me with aisles of nice-looking hamburger, boneless-skinless chicken breasts, and milk sold by the gallon. I can't even walk in the meat aisle here without gagging... the smell is horrible! | | | About shipping things- don't worry. You don't need to send me anything. I'm doing okay!
ReplyDeleteI am a strong believer in self-medication, also. It quiets the "toddler talk" bouncing around my skull after a long day.
