Someone in the cafeteria where I work has pissed off God.
That's the only explanation I can come up with for the TWO floods that have plagued the good people who work there. I mean, even Noah only got one flood. I don't know what that person did, but they should probably work it out with their personal savior so that we can get our "special eggs" on. I suspect the offense had something to do with Turkey Thursday, but I can't prove it.
Anyway, being that our normal lunch spot was underwater, we meandered over to a smaller cafe with a sandwich bar. While we waited in line, we saw a sign. I have seen similar signs to this, but not ever with this wording. I have seen numerous nut warning signs that say things like:
"May contain nuts."
"This area contains products that may contain trace amounts of nuts."
And even: "Cannot guarantee that this product is nut-free"- a label that I think applies to more than just allergies...
But recently, at our small contingency sandwich shop, we saw a sign that said,
MADE IN THE PRESENCE OF PEANUTS AND WALNUTS.

A Short Excerpt of a Domestic Conversation
The boyfriend and I are lounging, discussing his text message traffic (homeboy maintains a large, chatty posse.) One of his friends is discussing a current potential paramour...
He: He's a German... furniture maker?
Me: Must be a hipster.
This is when he shoots me an "explain" look...
Me: Furniture makers are all hipsters. Or the Amish. Or people who do it because their father gave them a store, that was given to him by his father. That's it.
He: You should draw that.
And so I did- See?
Mad props to the iPad app Paper by 53, for helping me draw this.
Also mad props to Karmin, because every time I drew something today in Paper, I sang, "I'm makin' paper!"

I don't know why I imagine the Amish are so angry. But I do.
