Devil's Food page 2 by ric gustafson


Roy looked down at the wheels of the steel cart. It was making an irritating noise. He got a different cart. He quickly walked past produce. He turned into the seasonal isle. He noticed a sign indicating that candy bar minatures were on sale. He walked up and began to put bags into his cart. He was about to leave the aisle.
Then he noticed the white display at the end of the aisle. " Hostess" he exclaimed with glee. He saw the crumb cake and the chocolate donuts. Then a smile came to his face. " Devil Food zingers".
He held up a box. " I wonder if trick or treaters would like them also". He knew he was only supposed to get candy bar minatures. But he loved the chocolate outside and the creamy filling inside.
" I'll just take a couple boxes". He smiled. " And mix them with the candy bar minatures". He put the boxes into the cart.
With a sense of accomplishment, he paid for the groceries and left the store.
