Bramples Crumbs

CRUMBLES OF OF PASTRY
WERE STAINS ON HIS SHIRT
THEY HAD EATEN THE ENTIRE TRAY
THEY SAW BETTER THINGS
DONE THE BEST WAYS
AND THINGS THAT WERE SUITED TO THEIR
AFFORDIBLITY.
THEY BECAME HAPPY FROM KNOWING SOMEONE
CARED ENOUGH TO BARGAIN AND DEAL
IN ORDER TO SELL ITEMS MOST CRAVED BUT WOULDN'T BUY.
SAMPLES MADE CONVERSATIONS FOR DAYS.
WHEN THE ITEMS WERE NO LONGER AVAILIBLE, SOME START ORDERING THEM, SOME EVEN DEMANDED THEM. THESE PASTRIES WERE EXSPENSIVE TO MAKE, IT'S JUST THAT REQUIRED A LONG TIME TO PREPARE
COOK, AND SERVE. SO THE CHEF ASKED THE PEOPLE TO ORDER DOUBLE THE
AMOUNT THEY'D NORMALLY BUY, HE SAID IF HE COULD MAKE THE SAME
AMOUNT IN SEVEN DAYS, THAT HE'D NORMALLY MAKE IN EIGHT, HE'DPROFIT ENOUGH TO MAKE THE PASTRIES AVAILIBLE FOR ALL THOSE WHO WOULD EAT THEM. SEVERAL FOLKS THOUGHT THIS MAN WAS MAD, THEY SAID HE'D FOOL ENOUGH PEOPLE INTO THINKING THAT, THE EXSPENCE OF SEVEN DAYS COULD EQUAL EIGHT, AND THE PROFITS FROM EIGHT DAYS COULD BE MADE IN SEVEN. oNE FELLA EVEN WENT AS FAR TO SAY, IF PROFITS BENIFET HIM, WHY DOESN'T HE REDUCE THE PRICE OR CHANGE THE PORTIONS SIZE TO MAKE THESE ITEMS MORE READLY AVAILIBLE.. oR HAVE THE RESTURANT TO OPEN LATER TO ALLOW MORE CUSTOMERS TO TASTE AND FEAST ON THESE DELIGHTS. THE PASSION OF THESE PEOPLE TO HAVE PASTRIES AVAILIBLE TO THERE SELVES AND NEW CUSTOMERS AMAZED THE CHEF SO, AFTER HEARING THE COMPLAINING CUSTOMERS, HE DESIDED TO ADD A FEATURED SPECAIL ITEM TO GO WITH THE PASTERIES, HE MADE A MIXTURE OF COCOA AND COFFEE, CREAM AND WHISKEY AVAIABLE FOR THOSE WHO WANTED TO SPEND THE EVENINGS OUT DINING ON SWEETS. THIS SATISFIED THE PEOPLE, AND THEY DINED AND DANCED THE EVENINGS AWAY, MAKING THE CHEF A WEALTHY HAPPY GUY!
