The things I do for lunch….
So yesterday I had an interesting experience attempting to eat my lunch. I had an entire hour to eat, I was super excited and asked marianne (the King Street Native) where to go, she informs me that “Bittersweet” is the best. We trek all the way out there (about 8 blocks) order the food, attempt to pay with work’s card - unfortunately they no longer take discover. So we pack it in and head about 10 blocks back past our office to Subway, but no luck. Their credit card machine is broken.
So we get a call that we have a conference call at 2:30 so there is no time for real food, we stop in to Hard Times order to go and have to go back and pick it up after the meeting. Well now I’m super bummed because I had spent the entire morning picking out which cupcake I was going to get for dessert. it was going to be carrot cake with lime icing. I hear its to die for. Well I told everyone in my office about my beloved cupcake and then SPLAT my dream as crushed = no cupcake.
So i had to settle for some pretty intense chili and cornbread which was good, still no cupcake. Well I got to work super early today like an hour early. The later i leave the faster I get to work…I’m hating the catch 22. But I get to my desk this morning and there sitting where there should have been nothing was a cupcake. A carrot cake one with lime icing. I was so excited….although I don’t know who gave me said cupcake, i enjoyed it immensely. Today will be a good day….If I don’t fall asleep first.
