So Today I Help a Lovely Customer

…who was visiting from Birmingham and in our shop for the first time. We had a lovely visit and then we recommended he have lunch at Jackson’s across the street. The first martini, we made sure to tell him, is on the house.

About an hour later, I was called out of the back while eating my OWN lunch from Jackson’s to see…a waiter with a deLIcious cocktail for me, courtesy of our new friend from Birmingham.

Chivalry is alive and well.

   That’s awesome! Birmingham is where my great-grandparents settled when they came from Sicily. . . so my grandfather can call up a Southern accent at will. So charming.

   One of my nice co-workers bought me a drink after school today, too!
