Shiloh Foster has posed:
It's early afternoon, the breakfast crowd having gone, and the evening crowd not to arrive for a few hours. That gives Shiloh some time to clean, perhaps make another batch of some favored flavors, and today she has a sample plate on top of the display case. Currently, she's sweeping the main lobby while watching the outside as it seems today is another dreary day of threatening rain.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie has been out doing some shopping for presents for the folks back home, and as he walks down the street he sees a bakery. It gets his attention a bit as he remembers seeing some containers at the school from there, so he figures he will check it out. Sam steps inside looking about the place as he does.

Shiloh Foster has posed:
Shiloh looks up just as she finishes sweeping and smiles. "Hello! Welcome to The Dark Side. Take yer time and look around, let me know if you have any questions..." She says this, her accent clearly somewhere from England. "M'names Shiloh and I'm happy to help you any way I can." Offering that much more as she goes to put the broom and dust pan up then washes her hands.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie smirks a bit and says "come to the dark side, we have cookies huh?" He grins a bit and takes a few moments walking around looking at different things waiting on the lady andd when she is back, he will ask "Whats good today?"

Shiloh Foster has posed:
Shiloh beams a smile. "Exactly that! We -actually- have cookies. And cupcakes. Cakes by the whole or slice. Pies. Breads. I'm working on building up the menu a bit. We've only been open for a few months to be quite honest with you." She says this much and then looks down at the offerings. "The Spicy Cocoa is always a good one if you like a bit of heat. Caffeine Dream if you don't mind a bit of coffee with your chocolate. And...ah...signature cookie. The Dark Side. It's a little bit of everything, spicy coffee chocolate...with butterscotch chips..."

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie hmmms and says "Maybe a half dozen of the dark side, and another half dozen random ones? He hmmms and looks at the pies "Ever do pecan pies?" He asks.

Shiloh Foster has posed:
Shiloh nods and grabs a couple of cookie boxes. "Random cookies or random other things? Just so we're clear. Cause I've accidentally sold stuff someone didn't mean to buy.." She says this with a smile and then tilts her head some. "Pee-Can Pie?" (Sorry it's the way most people in the UK pronounce it) Then she purses her lips. "Never heard of it. So sad to say, no. But I can definitely look it up and maybe add it to the list of items to sell. Maybe even make a test pie for you to try?"

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie hmmms and says "Cookies sure, but lets add an assortment of other things. He tells her a price he is willing to spend to let her pick a few things "The pie is a bit of a southern thing, rather sweet but really good." He tells her. He will even bring up a picture of one of his ma's pies to show her.

Shiloh Foster has posed:
Shiloh looks at the picture while he describes the pie and she nods her head. "Alright. If you want to leave your number, I can call you in a few days with one ready for you. Just don't...compare it to your mother's pie. I doubt I can come close to matching such talent." A smile and then she hmms, and gives him an assortment of a few cupcakes, cookies, and one slice of cake. She rings everything up and puts it all in a bag for him. "Here you are." Giving him the total that's a bit under what he was willing to pay but also seems reasonable.

Cannonball has posed:
Samuel Guthrie nods and will leave his number and a tip for the woman "Thanks, Ah will get back to you soon, Ah don't expect anyone's cooking to compare to my Ma's only ones I really compare to it is my sisters, and thats more to torment them.

Shiloh Foster has posed:
Shiloh smiles, taking the number and then gives a nod. "Thanks. If you enjoy the treats, please tell your friends. Word of mouth is the only advertising I can afford right now." Then she cleans off the counter a bit. "Oh and do come again!" Which, you know, he likely will. Once she calls him.
