True to her word, Shy made a trip to the Bon Bon Boutique. 'Twas after the carnival, late on that September Saturday evening, that she, with Cooper in tow, sought out Katt's place of business. Of course it was not open, but that was not the reason for the visit. Nei. She simply wanted to locate the address so she would know which route to take the next time she journeyed to the bakery.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today is the day! 'Tis late in the morning, yet before mid-day, as she meanders down the stone path that leads to the Bon Bon. Upon her arrival at the quaint shoppe, the Seafaring Warrior pauses to read the chalked message on the little blackboard next to the front door:
Yum Yum of the Month
For the month of October
Pumpkin Carrot Cupcakes with Orange-Cream Cheese Frosting
"Those do sound quite appetizing." Nodding her head as she speaks to herself.
Without further ado, the Norse woman readjusts the large packages she is carrying, then enters the two-story stone-and-wood structure. Immediately upon crossing over the threshold her nostrils are assailed by the most wonderful aromas; so delicious smelling, are they, that she begins to lightly salivate. Closing the door behind her, her light blue gaze sweeps over the interior taking note of the decor, the items for sale and the large, albeit unusual, contraption at one end of the counter.
"Uff da. Hva in Hel is that thing?"
Hopefully not another one of those damnable computers that she and Guthorm destroyed several years ago when on a secret mission to 'the Mall'. 'Twas a late night clandestine trip; the stores were closed and nei one else was around. If apprehended, they had mutually agreed to blame it all onto Ms. Obsidian Shayd.
Another adjustment is given to those bulky brown paper-wrapped bundles, hefting them higher as she makes her way over to the silvery beast for a better look-see, and a sniff or two. Peers around the big metal machine, to its front. Of course she notices the clean cups and all of the pretty shiny buttons. And are not buttons made to be pushed? Glances around, nei sign of Katt or anyone else ... yet.
"I wonder...," whispers as she reaches out with a gloved index finger.
