An Unexpected Present.

I arrived home from work yesterday evening, after traveling in the morning, to our mail finally being delivered. We've had a postal strike up here in Canada for a few weeks. As a result, we weren't getting all of our mail.

Stuffed into our mailbox were three Economist magazines, a ton of junk mail and a delivery slip from the post office. It was addressed to The Husband, and said they had tried to deliver a package... But because we weren't home to receive it, they were holding at the post office.

"Did you order something?" The Husband asked me.

"Nope," I said. "And I would have it addressed to me if I had."

We gathered that none of our friends or family had ordered it, because they would have told us. So off we went, slip in hand, to the post office to collect our package.

When we got there, it was a medium-sized box, marked "Magnotta" on the side. We pulled out the manifest on top, but all that was on it was the tracking information. Nothing indicating what was in the box. So we took it home and opened it.

Inside...


Icewine! Two lovely bottles of the stuff! However...

We have NO IDEA WHO SENT THEM TO US!

The box only contained the wine. No other information. So it is a mystery.

Thank you, whoever sent it, for the lovely gift. It was very thoughtful.
