Imagine, if you will, a 16yr old ballerina in toe shoes with a bun head and one of those tutus that stick straight out from their waists (which of course don’t exist because that would suggest hips). Then imagine a tray of gigantic cupcakes which belong to the crew . Now imagine this ballerina has her elbow on the table with the cupcakes, chin on hand, staring at them. Another ballerina...
When I leave work for meals I always walk east. Always. I work nearly in the Hudson river and something about north and south is just —- I don’t know. Civilization = east. Tasty things = east, but I wasn’t really hungry. I’ve gone south before and not much good comes of going south. Just north is a big thing with nothing exciting for a lunch hour and then…....

Have you ever been to the cookbook store? I have not but it is in the back of my mind as something I keep meaning to do. Well turns out she has a website and it is so great.

I highly recommend the 2nd comment left on the post. I’m disappointed he didn’t point out what design should be on those mudflaps.
Academic Tumblarity
osmium:
I posted a photo of the Brooklyn Bridge earlier, and my tumblarity immediately fell 5 points. I applaud this feature. I assume, all over the US, college juniors are hanging up posters of Bob Marley in their dorms and having their tumblarity immediately fall 50 points. Life is good.
