Default My neighbor just drove off and came back with a bottle of wine. I don't drink, is...

...it odd to make a wine run in the middle of the afternoon?
(I'm not a peeping tom, I just have a full view of their driveway from my kitchen window and I am doing Holiday baking)
Like I said, I don't drink, so I didn't think about the whole gift giving aspect of it. PS, they have had knock down drunk fights over there several times, maybe thats why it concerned me. And yeah, I'm a nosy neighbor, I'll admit it! But I'm also a concerned neighbor. Our kids are friends.

It doesn't matter if he buys wine, beer or a blow up doll. It isn't any of your business.

Gee your nosey! This could be a gift for someone or to be used in baking or to be chilled for later on (to drink at dinner).

Glad you're not my neighbor - this afternoon I bought a bottle of melon vodka & sour apple liquer for appletini's I'm serving tonight for friends.

Nope! I'd be going out for a bottle of wine if I was short a present for tomorrow, or if I was just invited to someone's house and needed a gift for the host/hostess.

Nothing wierd about it.

That's just nosy. Even if you inadvertently noticed that he purchased wine so what? Perhaps he's French or maybe he just needs a drink. Do you see him stumbling in your yard or stepping in your garden or urinating on the side of your house? Otherwise it's none of your business. I hope that I don't live in your neighborhood.

Don't care for your points but this was a ridiculous question. Nosy.

First how do you know when they are going to drink this bottle of wine.
Second you are too a peeping tom.
Third that is why I live on acreage so I can get smashed if I want to or run around naked without nosy neighbours looking on.

No, it's not odd. Now mind your baking and let your neighbors mind theirs.
