She does her heaviest eating when she's upset. As a child, Shirley stopped spending her allowance on candy once she discovered that a 10? can of condensed milk, eaten with a spoon, is the sweetest thing there is. Asked this summer to name the foods she would most like to have on a desert island. Shirley said: "Fudge, brownies, chocolate...
