After going to the bank, I dropped by the grocery store. There I was at the self-checkout lane, taken aback a bit when I noticed the issue of Southern Accents I was buying was costing more than expected. All of a sudden I felt a chaotic but happy presence approaching. You know the feeling - when you sense someone is coming up behind you. From the corner of my eye I saw arms outstretched and flailing as groceries were spilling out onto the self-checkout lane next to mine. A package of frozen-something landed in my lane. The person, with the happy-chaotic energy, started to say something charming...
"How cute" I thought to myself...
I looked over towards him. It was my husband! "Danny it's me" I said. A huge smile flashed across his face. We started to laugh and reached out and held hands. Love at first sight, all over again, at the Harris Teeter checkout lane.

your story AND those fab rooms make me happy.
Having been reading across each other for some time, I think it's about time for me to leave you a comment.
As you may have found out I'm across the other side of the Atlantic and time difference may be showing a little strange.
Today as I read the sweet story at the checkout, I couldn't help but feeling happy and I smiled...so precious.
All the best,

We love Harris Teeter - wonderful store that we wish would expand up north. And your lovely romantic moment... so nice.
The thrill of encountering love in an unexpected places is always a delight. My fav is when my then 4 year old goddaughter Hailey grabbed my leg in Target and said gleefully "Surprise!!. Its me!!"
That smile & the joy...magnificent!!
Have a wonderful weekend!!!
Nice lively and vibrant home spaces...I love it and they look very stylish too. Nice mix of colors and textures.
That is so lovely - see love can find us anywhere... xv
Oh, I love moments like these and rooms like those, with happy colors.
