We are down to our last two boxes of Trader Joe's storage from when we lived in D.C.<BR/><BR/>Number two: I love your 'Hi' idea. It is a kind thing to do. It makes people more human, not just obstacles to get around. No one wants to be an obstacle.<BR/><BR/>I think that Washington D.C. was far enough South to catch some 'Southern Hospitality'. I think that they appreciated a Hi. If they did not, I probably was not too appreciated there.

I grew up there and when I moved West I thought everyone was superficial because they acted like they were friends with everyone. Now I'm kind of in between. But one thing is for sure when you make a friend in the East they will do anything for you!Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16454492243619621236noreply@blogger.com
