It'll piss off the French.  Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?

Plus Americans were getting too skinny. This should help. Send it down to the south and the first thing we'll do is make a bacon cheese burger with that as a bun. Call it a French Luther.

Even as someone without much of a sweet tooth, that is something I'd want to try upon waking up after a long night.

Cronut Pics spoilered, and for more info go here. I'm only putting that link in for two reasons, 1) in the hopes that someone here who bakes becomes motivated to try making them and send them out to F13 people and 2) the ridiculousness that they originally sell for $5 (which is fine) but that the introduction post on grubstreet talks about how there's a 'black market' on Craig's List selling these for $40.....wtf.

I don't know.  It looks better than an actual doughnut, but then I like croissaints better.  The pink icing makes it look waaay too sweet though.

It's like a cross between a cake donut and a... not-cake donut, with a croissant thrown in.  I would be dead in a week from overeating if I had free access to those.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!

This just in!  Scones fucking blow.

I mean, I don't eat much of any of that other shit either, but if I was going to, why would I waste precious chewing energy on a dry-as-shit scone?  No thanks, I'll go lick a wall.

Starbucks around here used to have some nice scones.  They just go so perfectly with coffee.  I'd never eat one without coffee though.

Muffins are like fat in a cupcake wrapper.  Too sweet.  Too many empty calories.

I make my own scones.  Cherry Vanilla Almond.  They're awesome.

A scone is like a bread and a pastry had a bastard child.  It's part bread, part biscuit, and part sweet.  It's breakfast, man!

I go here at least once a week for a Fire Dog (super spicy hot link, jalepenos, grilled onions, cream cheese, mustard and relish) for breakfast. I usually get iced tea or iced Chai to go with it, since I don't particularly care for their coffee. The whole staff is very comely as well...they could probably run one of the nearly naked girls serving you overpriced espresso stands without any change in personnel.

Wow.  The Texas Dental Association's employee pension plans (plans you can use through them for your employee's retirement stuff) has apparently been the victim of "malfeasance" and now they aren't even sure if any of the money is left.   Ohhhhh, I see.

I'm ready for all the thieving to stop.

You know, if we were allowed to shoot a few of them it might at least lessen the incidence of these type issues.

It would at the very least keep those specific individuals from doing it again.  Maybe we can start by spraying them with water and smacking em on the nose with a newspaper then work our way up to a shooting.

I'm homeless again. Staying at a friends house tonight before flying to Madrid tomorrow where I'll live in a hotel for a few weeks while I find an apartment. Feels weird to be leaving this place, I knew I wasn't going to be there for ever but it was still a bit emotional as I closed the door to the apartment behind me and when the train pulled out of the station.

New job though and I get to work on the kind of games I like to play at least.

I feel sad that I was just about to type this joke when I read ahead and saw that I was beaten to it. I also feel sad that Texas caused this joke to immediately pop in to my head.

It's even worse when your Kindle is registered to an Amazon where the default language isn't English. You can find ebooks in English on Amazon.de but they are all in one category by themselves. Hope you didn't want to browse by genre auslander schweinhund!
