okay first of all, ahahaha depends. oh how their grocery store antics make me laugh!
"Please say yes. I spent a whole quarter on this thing."
another superb line & another fantastic little story. (yay! they're engaged. now if only they'd get it together on the show!!)
Author's Response: They're not there yet, but...RING IN THE POCKET AT ALL TIMES!!! And a real one, not a plastic fake one, either! What a glorious day that's going to be and I'm really hoping we get to see it. I think we will - they wouldn't have teased us like that with no intention of delivering, right?

oh. my. god. its so good i'm using grammatically incorrect full stops. This is beautiful and sweet and so brilliantly Jim/Pam. I love that you got down to what is essentially the base of their relationship for me: they're just best friends and they make each other laugh. Wonderful.
Author's Response: I'm so touched by these reviews, shootingstars! This one kind of came out of nowhere and I was really pleased with the end result and I'm so glad you were, too.

Are you kidding me Sweetpea!(Tuna)....this is FABULOUS. Not that the entire story hasn't been....but God love you for this. Nothing better than a grocery store proposal for these two!
Author's Response: Oh, LoveFool, I am so happy to read your reviews. I tossed around the idea that Michael should be the one to give Jim his epiphery, but I just fell in love with the idea of this woman...a random stranger, a widow missing the comfort of her husband's humor, to make Jim realize what he should do. Thank you so much.

Oh, that was just divine! I can imagine Jim Halpert and cute little old ladies. Can't wait for more!
Author's Response:
He's just the kind of young man that the little old ladies would go crazy for, isn't he? God, don't let that boy loose in a nursing home! Thank you for the review, schrutebucks!

Okay that might be the perfect proposal! I love the ring ;)
Author's Response: Jenn, thank you! It felt right for them, to me. Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Seriously one of the most beautiful Jim/Pam chapters I've ever read. Love the randomness, yet perfection of the proposal.
Author's Response: Aw, jinx, that's quite a compliment given all the wonderful writers here. I'm honored and thank you for reading along this whole time. It really is reviews like this that make me want to keep writing more.

Aw, so sweet. I'd imagine that Jim would have an epiphany similar to this one day. Like, "what am I waiting for?". They've already waited so long.
This story is great.
Author's Response: In light of everything they've been through and how long they've waited...yeah. He needed to have an epiphery and just get on with it! Thanks for the review, kells!

Awww...Pam will certainly treasure that plastic ring just as much as the real one he gets her. And,yes, "rascal" is a perfect term for Jim.
Too cute, those two.
Author's Response:
EH, thanks for all the sweet reviews. This one might be my own favorite so far. Glad you liked it.

I so loved this chapter. So sweet and perfect.
Author's Response: Thank you, NanReg. I sat down with a really loose idea and the thing pretty much wrote itself, which sure doesn't happen too often. Glad you liked it.

Thank you for not having a life. This was beautiful! One of the best Jam!Proposals I've ever read! Love him teasing Pam with embarrassing grocery items. Such a dork.
Author's Response:
The straight-up, romantic proposals have been done far better than I could ever hope for. This felt real to me, something he might do impulsively...and back it up later with the real ring and a more formal proposal. Thank you for the wonderful comments, lisahoo, and for being . . . such a dork!

Remember the other night when you said I made you laugh so hard you almost peed your pants?
Oh those two. haha. Cute and fluffy.
It's the laughter I miss the most since I lost my husband. He was a rascal, just like you. Enjoy every single moment
Aww! I heart Elderly People!! So adorable and wise.
Good. What'll it be? Rocky Road or plain old chocolate?
*sigh* you and your food fic. HA!! (I'd go with good ol' vanilla Pam)
Yay for Engaged!Jam!!!!! I love this. They're so dorky like that and I love it. Insert happy sigh here.
Lovely!!! :)
Author's Response: Awww, I'm so glad you liked it! This one poured out really fast, I did just a little editing, didn't agonize over it, and let it loose. Vanilla? No way!
