You: Wonderful purse-finder
Me: Purse-loser
Thank you so much for returning my cream-coloured purse with the golden cougar buckle. It is easily the most bad-ass thing I own and I was heartbroken when I lost it. Email editorhilary@gmail.com if you see this. I want to thank you! Do you like cookies? I want to bake you cookies! Put the street name where you found it in the subject line.
Anyone else out there who returned someone’s lost belongings: Thank you! You rule!
I love you, Halifax. —Will never lose faith in Haligonians’ generosity

you have a buckle shaped like a cougar?
Yes! I do! RRRRRRAWR!
Bake some cougar shaped cookies, or better yet, slaughter a cougar and bake some proper cougar cookies. Even better if it’s an endangered cougar.
Off to the zoo I go!
‘m tempted to spam you with every street name in halifax….
just for the cookie payout.
