Mnemonic


[g-] Gandalf is in [1] front of the [-(o)u] bakery, which is closed. He is craving a croissant, so takes out a special 厶 elbow from within a 勹 container he had and throws it through the window (breaking it). A second later it reappears with a croissant. Gandalf takes out his list and 勾 crosses out the first task of the day: "[X] get croissant".
