Today when I got to work the bakery was buzzing with activity, including a photoshoot. I assume the guy was shooting for some important paper or magazine, as evidenced by his multiple-camera set up. But what was really amazing is that while he was getting the shot, he was on his phone. Nothing says "I'm too important to be doing this" like taking a call while on assignment.

Sweet Pea Bakery is really yummy and everyone should eat there and have Allan (not pictured) make you an iced Americano.

So this morning I was telling my favorite vegan Aaron about how much I love donut day and he said, "wait until you see the special donut we made!" Almost instinctively I replied, "Is it shaped like a cock and balls?" Obviously it was. Of course the Sweet Pea staff went above and beyond, making it actually function. Yay,…
