@adlibitumphotos: Tout à fait Pascal, les traductions gratuites ne sont habituellement pas parfaites ;) lol n'oublie pas que la traduction est toujours mot pour mot, dans ce cas il serait mieux de dire: The joy of buying groceries...;) pour être fidèle à ce que le français exprime, plus ou moins lol
NB c'est aussi très gentil de ta part ;)
