My husband is a very busy salery man. He wakes up very early. Every morning, I tost him a bread with cup of coffee, and fresh orange juice for my self. He cannot forget to drink coffee before he leaves, to keep him awake from sleep. I also don't forget to pack him a bag of cookie, it is for his dessert after lunch. When he comes home from work, he is very exhausted. For my husband who work so hard, I decided to cook him a very special dinner every night. I went to the supermarket, and grabbed instant coffee, orange juice, margerine, cookies, macaronie, butter and milk. Today I decided to cook him a creamy vodka sauce macaroni. After having a dinner he came close to me and hugged me tightly. He wispered to my ears.
Thank you for preparing the special dinner for today, and for everyday. You are the hard worker in our family more than me. "

Your lips are melting chocolate


Your cheeks are peaches


Your eyes are clear water


The every moment were sweeter than any candy treats


The sweet dream wakes me up with spark of soda


You are gone now. Gone deep away to your own sweet land.





Story #4

They march, they crawl in a hot summer day. They swim, fight in a muddy ground. They march in a row, getting their work done. Some has survived, some has died. No matter how hard the work is, they continues. They carry heavy things to their place. The war became more threatning for them. They moved faster, fighting against their self to survive. They knew it was too late to run away. The strom was coming. I couldn't look anymore to the violence. Mom discovers the dead soldiers, she screams, and vacumes them away. Some of them still swim in a chocolate and takes scrums of biscuits. They ignored. They are the ants.

Receipt P-1
“Damn it!!” Josh stepped down from his digital scale realizing that he lost another four pounds. Josh had crush on this girl, Sara. Actually it’s been 4 years since he fell in love with her at first sight. He had asked her out several times but Sara always turned him down. She hasn’t exactly told him why she wouldn’t date him but Josh figured that it was his skeleton-like body which wasn’t too attractive as a guy. He would glare at himself reflected in the mirror, the cursed body, one that has been made fun of for years. He has been trying to get more meat or some muscle but he was born with such a body type. He’s always been skinny as long as he could remember. Josh was sick and tired of his skinny body. He went to a market and grabbed anything that looked like high-calorie food; gingerbread, party marshmallows, cocktail sausages, Sugar cubes, fruit cake and chocolate crispy. He went to the cheese section and picked a container of cream cheese. “20% of saturated fat is pretty good,” he thought. he also bought a new coffee filter for fresh coffee that would be served with the egg waffles. After finishing all the food, he went to bed hoping that he would be a little bit fatter tomorrow.


Receipt P-2
Sara entered a market. She was wearing a black hat down to her nose and a big pair of sun glasses even though it was raining outside. She looked around the market in a nervous way and seemed to hesitate for a second then went to aisle number four which was full of delicious food. She’s been having a hard time. She was fired 3month ago and hasn’t found a new job yet and she had 4 siblings she had to take care of. After paying bills and rent, she realized that she only had 21dollars and 10 cent in her account. Her younger sisters and brothers needed food. They were two year apart each and the youngest was only five years old. She grabbed two chocolate crispy, slightly shaking her hand then shoved them into her bag. Then she grabbed cream cheese, pepper, crab salad, marshmallows, fruit cake egg waffles and cocktail sausages. Her bag was bulging with the stuff she stole. When she was about to leave, she saw a ginger bread man which was her brother’s favourite snack. She grabbed the ginger bread man and tried to open the bag but there seem to be a problem with the zipper. “excuse me ma’am” she turned around and there was a security guard standing behind her. “may I see your bag?” he asked. He didn’t even wait for her answer but just snatched her bag out of her hand. “was he watching everything?” she was very worried. The security guard found 9 unpaid items in her bag. Her cheeks were blushed with embarrassment. “I’ll pay for these now” Sara said. He took her to the cashier and calculated the cost. It was 18dollars 1 cent. She quickly handed them the last 20 dollar bill she had and rushed off to her apartment.

Receipt 2 – Narrative 1

Benny Johnson had a sweet tooth. Not a sweet tooth in the mild, whimsical way you or I refer to ourselves as having a ‘sweet tooth’ for peanut butter or jellybeans. Nay. Benny had a full-fledged, obsessive, domineering, real-life sweet tooth. It could talk. All day Benny would try to concentrate on his daily hopscotch routine, feeding the ducks or playing with firecrackers, but the sweet tooth would nag him for sweets. No matter how much Benny tried to tell it to be quiet, by about 3 o’clock, he’d be smack in the middle of the candy aisle. In a desperate rampage, he’d gather milk chocolate, dark chocolate, gummy bears, gummy worms, fruit candy, caramels, chocolate caramels, Kit-Kats, cakes, Smarties and a multitude of fruit juice to wash it all down. Sweating, he took it behind the store and indulged in a decadent feast of succulent glucose. The sweet tooth purred. Benny felt ashamed. He had been told in church that boys who eat too much candy end up becoming perverts and liars. But still, he couldn’t resist his sweet tooth. It was time to do something about it! Benny looked around for the biggest, greasiest, rough & tumble guy with a fragile ego he could find. He saw what he suspected to be one, walked up to him and said,
“You look like a guy with a small penis.”
“What?!” replied the butch gentleman, starring daggers at Benny. Benny then realized that the ‘gentleman’ was not a gentleman at all but a very masculine woman. Before Benny could figure out if his insult was still insulting, the woman cocked her fist. Benny turned his head and showed the side of his teeth where the sweet tooth was.
KAPAM! (As they would say in the Adam West Batman) The he-she knocked the sweet tooth clean out of Benny’s mouth. With a big bloody smile, Benny looked up and said,
“Thanks, Mom.”

Receipt 2 – Narrative 2

Old Mrs. Ingleman was lonely. She had a cat but it was old and had lost most of its hair. If you’ve never pet a hairless cat, don’t start now. Naturally, crosswords and episodes of Price is Right were no longer enough to fill the days. Mrs. Ingleman decided that to remedy this boredom, she’d try to befriend some of the neighbourhood children. She’d be that lovely cliché of an old woman who always has treats, shows them how to tie their shoes and passes on sage elderly wisdoms. She went to the store and bought a long list of sweets and juices for the children. She arrived home, it was a sunny afternoon and the children were outside playing. She called out to them,
“Children! If you’re hungry, I have sweets in my kitchen for you!”
As she said this, officer Donald Chambers, father to one of the children playing, over-heard this invitation. He sprinted towards Mrs. Ingleman at break-neck speed and tackled her to the ground.
“It’s pedophiles like you that make it impossible for decent people to live in a decent community!” Mrs. Ingleman regained consciousness to the sound of handcuffs tightening around her wrists.
The moral of the story is: justice is always served.

Receipt 1, Narrative 1

Markus Goldman was having a party. The party was to celebrate his recent grand prize win in the local horticultural club’s garden of the year. With a very precise mixture of hazelnut spread, crab salad and Flower Lover plant food, Markus had created a magic formula that literally made his plants sing. You could hear them if you listened closely. They sounded like a cross between a barbershop quartet and Gregorian chanting. Not to mention that on top of this, the plants looked spectacular. Yes, these plants were groundbreaking in the world of floral aesthetics and had won Markus a gold ribbon and a fifty-dollar gift certificate at the local Pottery World. Not the most glamourous of prizes, but cause for celebration, none the less. Markus had procured essential orderves for the occasion: gingerbread, party marshmallows (it was in the title so they had to be right), cocktail sausages and cashew nuts to add a little bourgeois flavour. The only problem with this party was that Markus was a social recluse and had no friends. He had been far too obsessed with his world of plants for such frivolities as “friends” and “conversations”. With this dawning realization, Markus put some marshmallows and sausages between some gingerbread, sat back and listened to his plants. Because, damn, those plants could sing.

Receipt 1, Narrative 2

Donna Mudd liked to kick ass. She was kick ass at shot-gunning beers, duck hunting (Nintendo style) and super kick ass at literally kicking ass. As some of the more apt readers will infer, Ms. Mudd was a redneck and a moron. Subsisting on an illogically strict diet of cocktail sausages, sugar cubes, fruitcake, egg waffles and chocolate bars, Donna had somehow managed to become morbidly obese and still remain completely malnourished. But that’s not to suggest that she wasn’t strong. Since the age of 3, Donna had been wrestling hogs behind her trailer. Her parents, who were also brother and sister, so also technically her aunt and uncle, owned three hogs – Jim, Bobby and Bobby. Donna had mastered putting all three in a scissored armbar, especially Bobby. But now Donna faced her greatest challenge. She had made it all the way to the Hog Wrestling Championships, sponsored by the American government, and it had all come down to a final hog. The only thing standing between Donna and her hog-wrestling belt was a 350 lb. beast named Hog (The name-givers of this event were about as creative as lobotomized sheep and actually were lobotomized sheep, so the fact that they were even able to give the correct animal name can and should be considered a miracle, but that’s another story). The bottom line was that Donna hadn’t eaten all those waffles for nothing. The match between her and Hog began and with one mighty and flabby blow, she put Hog into her signature scissored armbar and from there into a back suplex and finished with a tumbuckle bomb. There was an explosion of hoots, howls and Budweiser from the crowd. Donna was overwhelmed with pride as she realized that she had single-handedly created one of the greatest moments in human history. And this narrator, for one, thinks we can all…agree…with that.

Receipt J

Receipt G

There was a regular day at the supermarket. But it wasn’t regular for a particular being named Receipt G. It was his first birthday on March 1, 2007. It was born in the country named Dominion, a very civilized country. It had a head of a melon, a heart of a strawberry, a skeleton of spaghetti, and lungs of beans. It also had a smooth, glossy surface which symbolized its youth and innocence. Receipt G was really excited about being born and experiencing its life for the first time. The cashier handed it over to a large man, whose hands were old and greasy. Receipt G didn’t really feel comfortable in those hands. Its white, fresh surface was now covered with greasy fingerprints. Its sense of insecurity even increased when the man started to crumple it. Receipt G thought that its life was over, and with horror closed its eyes. However, in seconds later, it found himself in a strange environment. It was really tight and dark. The smell of cigarettes made it almost impossible to concentrate on its observations. Some dirty strange papers with numbers and faces on them were rubbing against Receipt G, making him feel even more uncomfortable. It realized later that it was a pocket of that old man, with greasy hands. Suddenly, Receipt G felt really cold, and the greasy hand dove into the pocket searching for warmth and comfort. Receipt G thought that this greasy hand was really unfriendly, and decided not to talk to him. It just waited to see how his life will unfold later. Then, Receipt G noticed a tense shake, as if it was an earthquake or some other superior force approaching the pocket. The jacket of the old man was offhandedly tossed on the ground. Receipt G took this opportunity and slipped out that terribly uncomfortable and smelly pocket. It gently fell on the ground, still crumpled by those greasy hands. It hoped for a miracle to happen, it wanted to be flat and new again. But the ageing came unpredictably quickly. Receipt G started to blame itself for not being friendly with that greasy hand in that horrible dark pocket. Maybe it would help him to extend his existence but putting it in a safe place. Well, now Receipt realized that it is too late and that it is already on the ground where, very soon, it will be destroyed and tossed in the garbage. The moment has come. Receipt G saw those greasy hands approaching for its fragile body. The hands crumpled it even more and yes, tossed it in the garbage. Then, it could hardly identify the surrounding, so it closed its eyes, and in silence, accepted its miserable destiny.

MEETING IN A SUPERMARKET (part 2)

Receipt Q:

Hairspray, cigarettes and Ovaltine
It’s Saturday again. Saturdays are a lot like Mondays when you’ve seen sixty-six years of them like I have. In fact they’re just like any other day of the week for an old girl like me. It’s all the same. I wake up in the morning, take a glass full of Peach Schnapps and orange juice first thing to start the day, with a cigarette for breakfast. When that’s through, I put the curlers in my hair and give it a good dose of cheap hair spray, feed the cat, and settle down in front of the television with two waffles soaked in berry syrup. I find berry syrup goes well with a shot of amaretto and a cigarette. Last night I made a special trip to the grocery store however, because my grandchildren are coming to visit today. Nothing brightens up my life like they do. I bought them potato chips, Ritter Sport candies, and a coconut. I’m not sure what I will do with the coconut, but you know, kids these days are in to all sorts of strange things.

Crazed man eats cat
I’ve always had a particular interest in catching and killing my own food. Well, more of a longing to one day give it a shot. I’m just a huge fan of food. I guess if I was to catch more of what I eat myself, I would have a healthier diet, and believe me, I need to eat healthier - the doctor told me so. So a while ago I adopted a kitten. I live in the city, what other animals am I supposed to catch and eat? Pigeons? Since I didn’t want to have to wait forever for the kitten to be big and meaty, I started it off by fattening it up with meals consisting of a large can of wet cat food doused in berry syrup, sprinkled with a quarter of a bag of crushed potato chips, followed by various hard candies dissolved in warm milk for dessert and snacks in between. I think the cat seems about the right size now. I found a great gourmet coconut cat recipe online that I plan to use. Now, I’m not a violent man, nor do I know the first thing about euthanizing a small animal, so I decided to lace its food with hairspray and cigarettes for a while to see if this works. I guess I’ll have to add extra berry syrup on top of that.

Meeting In a Supermarket - Logan

RECEIPT E.1

The highlight of the evening came when Dave invited the cop in for a disco party.

“ I don’t know where…. … the disco lights came form… but ABBA FUCKIN’ ROCKS!”

There was in fact, no music playing, and the disco lights were coming from cruiser out front. But that didn’t stop Dave from spinning his arms and pointing frantically.

I was in the kitchen at the time, with a spray deodorant can and a lighter, trying to explode a yogurt container by torching it. There was 5 bucks on the line that said I couldn’t hit the ceiling with the spray.

I came around the corner to see the cop trying to keep a straight face. He politely asked Dave to remove the ‘No Frills’ bag from his head and put his pants back on.

I guess it all started earlier that evening, when we realized that 40oz-ers of Grafen Beer (11% MALT LIQUOR), was on sale at the grocery store for forty-five cents.

There’s still a crusty old yogurt-covered blueberry on the ceiling in my kitchen.


RECEIPT E.2

















RECEIPT F.1

“Hey Johnny sweetie, I’m gonna make some dinner now, is spaghetti alright with you?”

“NO!!! GOSH MOM!!! I’ve only told you like A MILLION TIMES ALREADY!! I ONLY eat SHISH KABOB on Tuesday nights!!! WHAT are you STUPID?!?”

Something gets thrown against a wall. SMASH. Shuffle shuffle shuffle.

“Oh shucks. I must have forgot. Sorry honey! I’ll go to the store now. I need to pick up some tea anyways.”


RECEIPT F.2

MEETING IN A SUPERMARKET (part 1)

Receipt C:

Bad, bad menopause
My name’s Rosanne. This month was my 53rd birthday. All of my children are off doing whatever they do that doesn’t include me. Two of the bastards “couldn’t make it to the birthday party” because they were out of the country. Couldn’t make it to their own mother’s 53rd birthday party? What party? The only person who remembered me was my youngest child, that reject. He probably only came over and drank my coffee so that he could ask for twenty bucks later. None of my Bingo friends called. Not Maurice, not Rico, not Eileen, not one of them. Nobody called except for my youngest son the reject. I’ve been so angry inside for the past few months - I don’t know what it is. Perhaps I’m just tired of dealing with everyone for 53 years now. Well I won’t have to once I’m done with them tonight. I started off by calling my oldest son and middle daughter last night because they’re both back in town now, but then I remembered how I felt deep down inside, and so I invited them over for coffee this afternoon. I invited those two, my youngest son the reject, and my friends from Bingo to come over for coffee this afternoon and this morning I gathered the supplies. Coffee, creamer, biscuits and a hand saw from the supermarket, and poison from the garage - the deadliest one out there, according to Google. The phones will be off the hook and the doors bolted, and shortly after I serve them their spiked coffee and biscuits, they’ll all be laid out on my kitchen floor, ready for me to use my new handsaw on them so they fit nicely in my freezer. The last thing I want them all to screw up is my freezer. I’ll see if I’m still in the mood later.

Mr. Woodworker
A cheap handsaw won’t last you long when you’re a woodworker like I am. In fact, I’m not sure why I’m even using a handsaw anymore when I’ve got all this expensive equipment. I guess it just helps me feel more traditional, like a real woodworker. People always doubted me, but I’ll show them all. I usually prefer the cheaper brand of handsaw because I go through the blade a lot faster and it makes me feel like I’m getting a lot more done - even if using a cheap handsaw takes twice as long. And that is why I’m going to be up all night trying to get this coffee table finished. I’ll need a lot of coffee of course, and biscuits to settle my stomach. I’m really living out my dreams.

article: Competition Gets Serious
written: Mark Sunny

Suzanne’s passion for cats showed its first warning signs when she purchased her 42nd feline at age 29. Suzanne was a sickly girl and rarely went outside, let alone participated in any school events, shows, or competitions. She also grew up in a house where most of its members were allergic to fur; once she had a chance to escape and get herself some pets – she did. Suzanne began participating in animal shows when she got her second cat Lucie. She became famous for her competitive streak; often winning the shows that she entered her cats in.
The last competition that Suzanne’s cats were entered, and had successfully won, was on America’s Funny Home Videos. She had filmed all 67 of her dearest creatures and sent the video in, hoping to win this one too. The video hadn’t gone unnoticed.
But sometime after the last win, Suzanne noticed a growing anger that she began to feel for these creatures. She was overtaken with the idea that she had spent all her life grooming them, feeding, and taking the best care she could – while they got all the fame.
On the day of April 4th, she had woken up a little earlier than usual and went out on her daily routine of buying food for her cats. But food wasn’t what was on her mind. Suzanne was planning revenge. She had carefully thought her actions, and decided the best way to go about it would be hairspray and garbage bags. That’s all she’d really need, but lots of it. No one would ever think badly of the lady who loved her cats so dearly – she devoted her whole life to them. Before going back to the house, Suzanne broke down in tears and had confessed her plot to her neighbour Julia; Julia momentarily phoned the police, and no animals had been harmed. Suzanne is now living with her parents, back in the house where no animal had ever stepped their paw in, and never will. Her 67 cats were given away to different people, and are now living happily. It was later discovered that they were quite malnourished, as she only fed the poor souls when they performed her complex, strenuous tricks. Suzanne’s therapist explained to us that she had suffered from jealousy towards her pets and the idea that she had never been properly thanked for all that she’d done for them. She was also trying to fulfill her lifelong dream of performing and competing, something that she was never allowed to do as a child.
This is the video that she had submitted and used for her last competition.

Receipt A

I am addicted to chocolate. I can’t stop eating those delicious sweet things. I guess half of my body is sugar. My doctor advised me to start drinking diet coke instead of having chocolate or regular coke. Eating sweet things make me relax that’s why every week I go to grocery store to buy ice-cream, waffle cones and cake. I spend a great time eating them without thinking about the bad effects.

Lisa MacDonald - Receipt Stories

Receipt “M”: story one

The most popular girl at school was Bethany Brown. My name is Liz, and I am not part of what Bethany referred to as the “in crowd” so like many others out side of her group I was bullied and teased. Day after day Bethany and her crew of jocks and cheerleaders pushed tease and ridicule the rest of the student body. Finally I decided to gather a group of individuals to pull a prank on the unsuspecting “in crowd”. I was in charge of gathering the required materials, which included a number of juice cans, a radish, and things that smelt bad went left sitting around for a while. In my backyard we filled my little brothers plastic pool with a sliced cucumber and radishes, cream cheese, yogurt, mayonnaise, chocolate milk, salami, brie, waffles, smoked cheese and sliced pickles. Brandon was given the task of stomping on the ingredients in order for it to all mix together nicely so I picked him up a par of rubber boots while I was out shopping.
An assortment of juice, shampoo, and pickle brine were added after the ingredients had rotted to insure it was a nice thick liquid. The morning of the attack on Bethany and her crew we meet at the football field under the bleachers. In a large garbage bag we had well over 20 balloons filled with our concoction. Every morning Bethany sits in the cafeteria with her friends and paints their nails before class. My next task was to “mistakenly” knock Bethany while painting her nails and apologies while offering her nail polish remover which I had left in my back in the bleachers my the football field. She and her friends then followed me out to the bleachers where I had left my bag, they sat down snickering and making fun of my attire and I handed her the nail polish remover. I told her I had to go to class so she could keep the remover she just laughed and ignored me. I went to meet the rest of my group, which had relocated behind the portables, located right behind the bleachers. We each grabbed as many balloons as we could carry and slowly crept behind Bethany and her friends and at the signal we unleashed the fury. One by one Bethany and her friends were covered from head to toe in our rotted concoction. We were suspended for a while but it was worth it to come back and find that she still smelt a little funny.



Receipt “M”: story two

On weekends I would spend my time documenting my neighbors using binoculars for fun. My neighbor to the left of our house was a single white male around the age of 40. On weekends he would bring home a number of different young women each night and they would spend most of their time in his hot tub. My neighbors to the right of our house were a hippy couple. Him and his wife would have nail polish parties every weekend. After they would then place plastic bags surrounding their entire backyard down on the ground and would pour juice, yogurt, grenadine syrup, chocolate milk and mayonnaise all over the laid out garbage bags. They would then each in nothing but bathing suits and rubber boots run and slide through laughing and yelling while covering themselves in the mess. After wards they would sit out on lawn chars and share a cheese, vegetable, crackers and meat platter until most of the mess dripped off of their bodies and they were dry enough to go inside and take a shower.

Receipt “P”: story one

There once lived a spoiled little girl named Susie-Ann. Her parents were barely home due to work and barely spent any time with 7-year-old Susie-Ann. Her parents form of love was to purchase whatever their little girl wanted including all the junk food she could eat. Susie’s particularly favorite snack food was an egg waffle with cream cheese, hazelnut spread, covered in melted marshmallows topped with another egg waffle. There was nothing her parents loved more than to watch their extremely unhealthy daughter happily consume this sugary creation. Susie-Ann’s toy shelves were covered not with toys and playthings but with fruitcake, chocolate crisp and jars of cashews. Every morning she had to have a cup of coffee with sugar cubs on the side, and a vase of fresh flowers. If only Susie-Ann’s parent had been around more often.

Hilary was the most beautiful girl at school. In 1999 at the first of every month I would greet her with a present in hopes that I would win her heart. On January 1st I presented her with flowers but she refused me. In February I brought her coffee and a bag of sugar cubes and still she rejected me. In March Hazelnut spread, but still nothing. April… fresh cream cheese, May… chocolate crisp, June… party marshmallows, July… cherry pie, August… egg waffles, September… ginger bread, October… candy corn, November… fruit cake but still she refused everything. December was to be my last attempt. With gift I hand I offered her the last of the 12 gifts. She looked down with her beautiful eyes and before I knew it she had flung both of her arms around my shoulders and squeezed me while yelling, “crab salad is my favorite!” Now each year on our anniversary of December 1st I present her with a crab salad.

Today, I went to a big market to buy some food with my sons. Few days ago, I decided to be on diet because I feel I am getting fat, and I am not going to buy high-calories food today. As soon as I got in the market, I grabbed a cart, and put thin crackers into it. These are great for appeasing my hunger at any time. Oh, I found some good mint tea... I think it is brand-new, so I put two boxes of mint teas into my cart. I realized that my sister will be happy if I would give one. When I approached to fruit section, I saw fresh peers. I picked up 2 for my sons. When I turned around, I suddenly found that it is one fifteen for each, so I grabbed two more for my husband and me. There were all four pears for my family. While I was sill deciding which rice would be better between Basmati rice and Thai jasmine rice, my sons came to me with toys on their hands. They clamoured for the toys. They wanted even two cars each…I was really confused. I said no at the first time and turned away to choose the rice; however, they kept bothering me like chicks crying for hunger, and I started to feel headache because of that. Finally, I permitted to buy the toys and dropped both Basmati and Thai jasmine rice into the cart. I think I will be in trouble to choose what rice I am going to cook for the dinner tonight.

I am living alone in Toronto. I am here in a market to buy some food because my sister is coming Toronto from Vancouver tomorrow. Because she does not like coffee, I choose some mint teas that look brand-new. A clerk is displaying some mysterious rice for sampling. I have never heard of the rice, which is called Basmati rice, but it taste good. Umm... Beef with rice will be great for tomorrow’s dinner... so I choose the rice and my favorite Thai jasmine rice. What can be great for dessert after the dinner? I grab a zero Trans fat cracker to eat when we watch tv. When I approach to a cashier, colorful toy cars near the cashier catch my eyes. They remind me my nephews in Vancouver, so I buy four toys to give them by my sister. When the cashier scans the food that I buy, I realize that I forget to grab some fruits! I stop the cashier for a minute, run to the fruit section, and grab some peers. They look fresh and sweet. The whole things come out of about 25 euro. I am really looking forward to have a great time with my sister tomorrow.

On Friday I was shopping for some food to prepare for the picnic on Saturday. I was going to go to a big park near my home with my friends. My friends would bring some food, and I told them that I want to bring some sandwiches. To make sandwiches, I put eggs, juice, and some dessert into my cart already. I thought I should bring coffee as well. Coffee after lunch would be great for all of us. After I filled up my cart with salt, margarine, cereal, and etc. that I need, I found delicious cakes and pies. There were various flavours. I cannot pass the cakes and pies, so I bought four different kinds of dessert; strawberry, blueberry, chocolate cakes and an apple pie. The people who were going with me were three so I bought 4 desserts. I thought I bought everything I need, but at the time, I got a call from my mother not to forget to buy a wrapping paper and gloves. I had totally forgotten about them but thankfully, my mother reminded me. I bought a wrapping paper and gloves at the end, and came back home.

My parents are gone to the states for a week, so I should make lunch for my sister and brother for a week. I chose to make sandwiches for them and bought wrapping paper, gloves, eggs, and juice. While I was looking for cereal for breakfast, I grabbed 2 Coffee Gold because I thought there is no more coffee left at home. At the seasoning section, I picked up salt and margarine. I think sandwiches with macaroni would be great, so I put it into my cart. After I chose cookies, I thought same sandwiches everyday will make them sick, so I decided to buy pies as well. Because my sister and brother like apple pie and raspberry pie, I bought 2 pies for each flavour. Even though it is not the lunch that mom made, I am pretty sure that they will love it.

Hi, my name is jessica and I’ve been working at a supermarket as a cashier for 6month. Actually, working at a supermarket is really boring… there’s only just repetitive behavior exists such as say hello to customer, use the machine to read barcode from item and get money and give back the exact change. That’s all I do during work hours… So I usually imagined what my customer going to do with what they just bought. It’s really funny.
However, before holiday season and long weekend, we are so desperate and depressed because there’s a lot of work load to us. Ah… today is going be a long day… Wait!! Wow there’s really hot guy in beverage section and he seems like having light that surrounding him… Please come to my position… I want to see his face more closely… please come to me… Oh…. My god… he’s coming towards me.. yea!!
Hi!~(more nicely) and..I try to start little conversation…

Oh… he might have friends come over because he has wrapping paper, instant coffee, orange juice, rice crackers salt, eggs, muesli, cookies, macaroni, and buttermilk desert… garden gloves??? That doesn’t make any sense… weird…

Recently, I bought a newly built 2 storey house with lovely garden and tomorrow my parents and relatives will visit to see it so I don’t have any choice… Actually, I would take a rest with my parents during my long weekend peacefully but… they invited close relatives…. Maybe they are so proud of me… Anyway, I have to make a list which I must buy today first. I need wrapping paper for my cousin’s present, instant coffee, orange juice, rice crackers salt, margarine, garden gloves, eggs, muesli, cookies, macaroni, buttermilk desert.. Not too many~ Ok!
I’m really new to this neighborhood so I‘d better go big market across the street… hmm… not bad. Actually, better than my expectation! But I found some strange stare from cashier… It makes me uncomfortable… Why is she staring at me?? I don’t know…… and there’s only her at cashier… damn it! I went to her … and she tries to keep saying something… and I just want to get out of this place…

Jack is a lumberjack, on his way to a 24-hour lumber jacking competition. Stopping by a department store he buys some coffee, cream and tea biscuits, for a snack and to keep him awake throughout the event. He also buys a handsaw. Now you may wonder why a lumberjack on his way to the Official Lumberjack 24 Hour Endurance Trial would need to buy a handsaw at the last minute. He doesn’t. He always keeps in his trusty tool belt a solid titanium, diamond tipped handsaw worth, like, at least 20 bucks. The reason Jack bought this 4-dollar handsaw is because he likes to buy cheap crappy saws that shatter in his hands as he’s sawing. It looks very dramatic indeed and impresses the beavers.

#1 The New Innovative Clothing Design

There is a struggling designer who is trying to make it big in the fashion industry, but he had no new ideas at that time for him to elaborate on. While staring at the wall blankly, nothing came to mind, but then his stomach grumbled. A grumbling stomach means that he must cook food, so he looked at a recipe book and randomly flipped to a page, the most wonderful page in the world. There was an ad in the magazine of salted wavy crisps. What an idea, why not make a piece of clothing with the use of crisps? Man on man, its unique design and its texture gave him a lot of ideas and from that one wavy crisp came more ideas and it all came rushing into this finished design. Garbage bags, hairspray, dry cat food, cat litter, milk, cigarettes, candy and crème, and berry syrup are the ingredients that made this one garment possible. Its beautiful design and flow made it a success. He uses ideas that are out of this world, hairspray to hold it all together and cigarettes for decoration purposes and dry cat food for the meticulous detailing. What a design from this now famous designer. Bravo!

#2: A group of adolescents try to capture or trick a dog into their trap. So they split into two groups and decided to brainstorm ideas that would lure the dog. The first idea is to lay down dry cat food so that the dog would think that there is a cat nearby so it would follow the trail and when the dog comes to the end of the trail, there is cat litter, another indication of a cat’s presence. In disguise, there is berry syrup underneath so that the dog would get stuck and a coconut wall so that it would not get away. Then there is a garbage bag cat at the other end to taunt the dog.
The other group came up with the idea that they would disguise a bunch of wavy crisps as cats so that the dog would follow its trail. They used cigarettes as the whiskers and candy and crème as the ears. Then they put down a puddle of milk so the dog will slip and using the extra strength hairspray, it would freeze the dog and capture it.

#1 The angry ex-girlfriend

The girlfriend is angry and disappointed that the boyfriend cheated on him. This makes him her ex-boyfriend. She wanted to get back at him through more fashionable ways. She decided to put together something that would help her say what she had to say about her ex. In a milk & juice jug, she filled it with brown beans, telling him he farts too much, sardines and fish stew – saying that he should be like the fish, die and get it over with, some cheese and some meat so that when he gets this package, he will regret it. Then there are aspects of him that are sweet so that she put in some chocolate items and then mashed them altogether. After that she put postage stamps on the jug with a monkey boy like toy to get back at her ex. That’s something that he’s going to remember for the rest of his life.

#2 What on earth can get rid of this smell? Man oh man, does it smell...someone told me that to get rid of this smell, you would have to add to the smell so that it would counteract so that the smell would go away. So they showered with the smelliest items ever. Fish stew, well that stew was a little off, brown beans to cover the smell. Gouda cheese, wow, rotting cheese is the most effective way to get this smell off, man, might as well put it into a jug so that there isn't that much work so every imaginable like sausage, sardines, meatloaf, a monkeyboy, etc. was in this jug and to top it off, some chocolate sprinkles and some chocolate croissants. They've even put stamps to try and peel away the smell. In the end, it did not work out and the friend realized that he was being pranked!
