SO ordered an item from Poland a while
back, an item which required an adult signature for delivery. Fine. We are home
almost all the time.
Only yesterday, I returned
from the gym to find a note on the door from the United States Postal Service
saying that a package could not be delivered. I presented the message to SO,
who looked at me in confusion from the desk never left since my departure.
Now it is possible that the
new PC game drowned out the sound of knocking and/or the doorbell ringing. But this
is not the first time I encountered this problem. Back when I was working and
had frequent packages shipping to my house from Japan there were occasional notes
left in the mailbox. And SO worked from home then.
At least the mailbox makes
more since. This delivery person came all the way to the door. What the heck?
But, minor rant aside, the
box contained a surprise. Check out the blood orange and mango filled chocolate
bar! Though we haven’t tried the candy yet, that vendor is going to get high
praise online for the extra courtesy.

Have you ever tried a blood
orange?
I love blood orange but I have never had it in choc. I have had a choc ball that is flavored with orange...love it! I have had blood orange juice and an actual blood orange....so good!
ReplyDeleteI like them, too, though we've been sticking with less expensive little mandarins these days. Yum. Be well, my dear!
DeleteI will say my mind went right into the gutter again. Just saying.
ReplyDeleteI want one. No I've never tried these. I want a full report.
Have a fabulous day. ♥
You're a doll. Thank you for the giggle. And have a greta day, yourself!
DeleteI have totally had that happen where I get a notification that something was delivered and they'd never come to the door. Irksome. Cool to get some candy, too.
ReplyDeleteIrksome is the perfect word. The candy was a nice surprise, for sure, even though I'm not big on sweets.
DeleteSo frustrating to think someone came to the door and didn't bother to knock or ring the doorbell, or at least didn't try very hard.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the support, my dear! I hope you're well.
DeleteLooks so good!
ReplyDelete~grin~
DeleteI don't bother with blood oranges in the United States anymore. Tried them several times, from several different stores, they were no good. Or at least not like the ones we used to get in Spain when we lived there for a short time when I was 13, which was basically what you got if you wanted oranges. The best oranges ever. Maybe the best fruit ever.
ReplyDeleteOh, I can totally understand. Can't say I've been to Spain but if the opportunity ever presents, I'm getting oranges. Yum...
DeleteThat was a nice addition to your order. Thank you for the condolences you left on my blog for my family's loss. XO
ReplyDeleteI thought so. ~grin~ And you're very welcome. Death is difficult. Be well, my dear.
DeleteOh that is a nice extra surprise. Ahh on the post office. I've had them do that. Last time she walked all the way to the door during a snow storm to post that my mailbox was blocked by snow (it wasn't). Left the note but didn't leave any mail. smh lol
ReplyDeleteWell. Okay. That's crazy. Be well, my dear!
DeleteMissing your post
