I Never Heard Of This Superstition Before

6:30 PM. Aubrey needed a needle and thread to mend something. I gave her the tiny, hotel sewing kit I'd been keeping. Then I went to three Sitio Catacutan convenience stores to buy proper needlework sets. All of them refused to sell me any; according to them no needles should exit a store after dark!

Finally found some needles at one of two novelty stalls and decided to buy three--one for Angelique, one for Aubrey, and one for myself. Either the salesperson had never heard of the superstition or she just didn't care.
