requests

series of odd queries from a woman so grotesquely fat she was spilling over the sides of her mobility scooter like a melting ice cream cone:

"Do you have any books on those things they used to do at the fair, those silhouettes, they would cut them out of black paper?"

"Nope, sorry."

"Well, how about anything on cake decorating?"

"Right over here, in the cooking section."

"How about Candymaking? Do you have anything on candymaking?"

"That would be with the decorating books."

"Do you remember when shops used to sell flavored popcorn? Do you have any books on making flavored popcorn?"

"Uh.....no."
