"Special Economics" story by Maureen F. McHugh

This line, I don't think I would have read anywhere else:
(the character has just bought a cell phone from a plastic cell phone kit that you throw in a kettle like a dumpling and it forms itself into the shape of a phone...)

"She bought a newspaper and scallion pancake from a street food vendor, sat on a curb, and ate while her phone dried."
