Location: A Berber rug shop
(after 45 minutes of choosing)
Merchant: Is THIS one OK?
Me: The size is perfect BUT the color is too dark. If you had the same one in light saffron yellow it would be BRILLIANT
Merchant:(brings out a rather large carpet suitable for 20 kids to play on)
Me: Errr, this one is only suitable for my mother's nursery room NOT for my bedroom
Merchant: (instead of sounding annoyed his eyes light up)Your mum is a nursery teacher???
Me: (deadpan) Yes
Merchant: OMG! Mine too! Which method? Montessori?????
Me: (to make his day) Yes!
Merchant: WOW! Can't believe it! What does she teach French????
Me: (goes in a fit of laughter)
Merchant: (eyebrow raise) What?
Me: Nothing. Don't worry about it. No, she is a regular teacher.
Side note: The laughter was generated by the thought of my mother speaking French probably not too correctly lol
