Movement I: 0:00 -- "Seraphic Salutations": I enter the store -- spacious, supernal -- and am greeted by a chorus of angelic assonance, a falsetto of soul-stirring, saccharine sentiment ([forte] "Hello!" ). 1:20 -- "Recurrent Selections": (mezzo piano) I have made my selections -- an assortment of black licorice-based candies, a mélange of daringly tart (!) drops -- and have prepared myself for the usual scorn, for nary a person I know has the same patrician taste as I when it comes to delicate delectables. 2:21 -- "A Fateful Encounter?": (Crescendo [mezzo piano to forte (casual perspiration to a deluge of salty skin-water)]) I approach the front counter, crisp currency in hand. My custom headwear (cashmere, hard pinch) falls to the ground like a wayward sparrow alighting upon a welcoming branch. (forzando[!]) Shock! Terror! But, finally, salvation! -- sublime customer service! Thanks to one of the store's amiable employees, hat and head are once again reunited.

She didnt even say a word to us and just scanned the items and gave us the machine and said nothing after either. No receipt or a "thank you". If she treated everyone this way I think I wouldn't have felt as bad but she clearly was selective to which "type" of people she wanted to be friendly to.

Read moreSO MUCH CANDY!! I love the variety of quality, genres(even of Classic and Nostalgic to British, comical or comics, gourmet or simple) and price ranges here- never mind there's so much candy you can literally be a giddy kid in a literal candy shop!!
They have multiple fudge flavors, licorice, honey sticks, candy-by-the-weight, chocolate-related mugs or magnets, etc., candy sushi/burgers, etc. Too much to mention and last I checked, they're open past 5PM on weekdays & Sun., closed 8PM Fri. & Sat.! Check out their site for current details before making a visit there, but a great place to make decisions for your or a loved one's...
