she carries out little wrapped strawberry candies, straight out of children's books!
speaking of children's books, have you ever read that rather horrifying story about the old woman who gave red sweets to the "good" children and blue ones to the "bad" ones? the twist at the end was that both sweets were poisoned. the "good" children were taught to save their treats and share them with their families, so they never actually ate them, whereas the "bad" children gobbled theirs up immediately and ended up falling terribly ill. that was some insane psychological trauma i experienced when i was eight years old.
