The quickest way to know a woman is to go shopping with her.

The General Store

I have seen Dorian three times since Sunday and Jamie not once. This has been very pleasant. The yellow dress is still hidden in my closet, but every time I go to see him, Dorian contrives to spirit away part of what I’m wearing. It is a very peculiar talent, but since he is sufficiently distracting and always replaces the garment with something lovely, I haven’t complained very much. Dorian has complained incessantly, except when his mouth has been full of pie.

I believe he enjoys my company, though his tongue is very tart sometimes. I am not afraid of him, though, and argument can make a very pleasant counterpoint to other activities. I hope he will come to see me at the market tomorrow, but I have a few more things to buy before I’m quite ready to open for sale, just a few ounces of sanding sugar for the crusts of the sweet pies and some salt to go in the savory ones. I do hope Glass will be working, not Amanda. I’ve never been terribly sure about Miss O’Hara, either.

OPEN to Glass
CLOSED
