Last week after work I was doing my usual last minute Christmas shopping. I skipped all the overcrowded main stream stores and opted for those small stores in my city's 'old town' sector.
I was only shopping for my wife and daughter, so this wasn't going to be a lengthy experience as time was getting away from me.
One shop was a womens boutique that had a nice selection of clothes and unique accessories. The lovely lady that assisted me was the store owner.
I managed to put several gift combinations together rather quickly, matching small beaded purses with jewelry, scarves and sweaters.
She was offering suggestions and also remarked, "My, you certainly are good at accessorizing, most men are usually lost when it comes to shopping here."
I noticed by her pleasant smile and demeanor that she was perhaps on to me. She began to word her suggestions as if the items were for me.
I guess the eye-to eye contact we made was the give away.
What fun shopping can be!
