Time to make the candy...

Yesterday Simon & I went to the mall to get him new shoes. Walking to the shoe store, we passed by several darkened food vendors. After passing the Orange Julius, dark & abandoned, its machines covered with a tarp, I was distressed, but upon reaching the dark & abandoned food court, I finally figured it out.
"A ha!" I exclaimed, "it's because of the water main break."

Simon: but the candy store was open, don't they need water to make candy?
Me: yes, but I guess all the candy was already made before the water main break.
Simon: I guess they knew there would be a water main break and that people would still need their candy, so they made extra last week.
