The liquor(ice) store

If you’re planning a move any time soon, may I suggest that you go to your local packie for free boxes? The boxes often available at the package store are great for moving books and packing up kitchen items.

Our family is making a local move tomorrow, and today I’ve made three runs for boxes. I brought my 4-year-old son with me today for one box run, forgetting the preference of my local dialect (“packie”) and telling him instead that we were going to the liquor store to get some boxes.

As we got into the car, he asked, “Why are we going to the licorice store?”

I decided to let it go uncorrected.
