[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve had a few people move in on our street. I’ve left a six-pack of beer or a bottle of wine* at their front door, with a note that includes my contact info, spouse’s name and kids’ names and ages. It’s been well-received, and a great way to establish a friendly/neighborly relationship without interrupting whatever they have going on.

*Yes, I am aware that some people are in recovery/choose not to drink/prefer something more Executive than the swill I gave them. But people could also keep Kosher/have food allergies/have plant allergies or pets to whom a plant would be fatal/not like the color blue/have violent feelings against a particular restaurant/always get offended on Tuesday. It’s a shelf-stable gesture of hospitality in a “currency” that’s easily accepted and easy to pass on if desired. [/quote]

OMG are you serious?
I would be terrified if I moved into a neighborhood and was greeted in such a smothering way.
Leave people alone people![/quote]

Terrified? Really?

We just wait until we see people outside and introduce ourselves. Have had two new familes move in on our street recently. They both had houses built and moved from very close by. Not like they needed restaurant recs. [/quote]
