Sandy's sandwich stand sells sandwiches with succulent salmon or scrumptious steak, but Sammy only wants sandwiches with sour sauce and serrated sesame seeds. Sadly, Sandy says her stock of sour sauce sandwiches have been swept up by the silly seagulls. Sammy stubbornly stands and stares at the sign that Sandy displays and snarls, "Sandy, if you don't supply sour sauce sandwiches, I'm sure that someone who savors sour sauce sandwiches significantly shall switch to your stand that splendidly attends to the specific sandwich preferences of shoppers!" Sandy sighs and scurries away to survey her supplies, and after ten minutes Sandy surprises Sammy with a sizable salad sandwich that has superb sour sauce stealthily set inside. Sammy smiles, salivates, and swiftly swallows the sandwich with satisfaction, and since that day, Sammy attends to Sandy's stand every single Saturday.
