    I'm Working On My Charm

    The main character is the narrator who plays as a stereotypical southern girl. She puts on a sweet act for her customers to receive tips. “I just smiled my heartbreaker’s smile and got the man his sandwich,” the narrator stated when an old man left a five dollar bill. When serving to early morning tourists, she learned that “if you talked softly you never got less than a dollar.” The northerners fell for her charm in the work place. “We have so much to learn from you- gentility, you know, courtesy, manners, charm, all of that,” a friend of the director of the organization she now worked at, had told her.

    Butcher Shop History

    The Butcher Shop is a restaurant and a bakery all in one and the food is delicious in my opinion. The butcher shop is a great place to enjoy a nice meal with your family and friends and still have some room for dessert. The products that the butcher shop sells to people are, for example: Hamburgers, French Fries, Sodas, Steak, Pork Chops, Ham, Turkey, Cakes, Pies, Cookies, Donuts, Cinnamon Rolls, Hash Browns, Pancakes, Waffles, Rolls, Muffins, Biscuits, etc.) My idea of the products that they sell is that they get new desserts and foods that they don’t have at the butcher shop now like if they added an ice cream machine or frozen yogurt machine in the restaurant or they can add new cakes, pies, cookies, and meats that they…
