She knew what she was looking for in housewares and was delighted with the large selection. The clerk appeared annoyed at the choice array she’d spread out on the floor.
“It’s just a spoon, madam!” he questioned, unable to fathom her difficulty.
Biting her lip, she smiled when she found ‘the one’ and followed the exasperated clerk to the checkout.
After scanning its barcode, he absentmindedly slapped his hand with it repeatedly, the sound conjuring the image in her mind of being bent over the desk with a bare bottom and the clerk finally understanding her need for a meticulous choice.
A cracking good yarn.
Thank you for your clever comment! 😉
Awesome 👍
Thank you, Tom! I'm a little surprised at the good reception this one got. I wasn't expecting it at all! 😊
Excellent micro! It reminded me of the time my Sir took me to the hardware store and told me to find the tool with which I'd later be spanked as part of a punishment, and I found mine in the kitchenware department as well, though I didn't choose the wooden spoon, but it was one of the options I was considering.
Thank you! That had to be a fun outing, knowing ... feeling? what the outcome will be! 😉
It was and yes, both 😊
Money well spent, I'm sure!
I'm sure she found out soon enough! Thanks for reading and commenting! 😎
Perfect choice of words and spoon to make my bottom blush! 😊
Thank you, Kimmi! It means a lot coming from someone whose stories I really enjoy! 😋
A spoon can do wonders! 😉
Not my favorite implement, but it has it's place! 😎
Nice little story!!!! Bet she was wet figuring which spoon!!!!!
Wet ... AND a little anxious at the size and weight of that spoon! 😎
Mark, a different contrast to you other stories - being limited in word count, but still you painted a great picture of what the item being purchased was, who knew there where so many options.
Look in Etsy for wooden spoons and your head will spin with the number of choices! 🤣
You did a great job choosing the right hundred words! Clever micro!
Thank you, Kat! Somehow the idea came to me when reading yours! 😘
