The Presidential Sweet
This is a day for the history books, folks! Yep, that's right: today I opened a fresh tin of Godiva dark-chocolate-covered pretzels, and only ate two. I know: impressive, right?
Oh, and Barack Obama is being inaugurated as President of the United States. That, too.
Naturally, I want to join in all the patriotic fervor the best way I know how, so allow me to dredge up a mistake from the not-so-distant past:
Ta-da!
This election-night Wreck's irony is twofold: 1) it's from a bakery in Chicago, and 2) the wreckerator responsible made a point of telling Chelsea M. what a big Obama supporter she was.
[looking at cake again] Yeeaah. Kinda makes you wonder what it would have looked like if she didn't like him.
Of course, bakeries across Washington and the U.S. are pulling out all the stops in honor of today's festivities, so we have more current Wrecks, too. Here's one Greg P. spied:
"Change we can belive in!"
Feeling a little seasick, Mr. President? Or perhaps you've spied my Godiva pretzels and are simply green with envy? [waggling eyebrows]
Some places are doing a better job, though: here's what the posh Willard Room Restaurant in D.C. has on display:
[tilting head] Huh. You know, Zach S., from where I sit it looks like the White House is leaning a little to the left.
[cymbal crash]
Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all week.
Oh, and here's a great example of American ingenuity: this is what Cate E. came up with when she needed to sell an overstock of Yule Log cakes left over from the holidays:
Obama logs! Or as she dubbed them, "Presidential InLOGuration Cakes". Heheheh.
And lastly, I'll leave you with Sierra Rein's find:
First thought: "Wow! So pretty!"
Second thought: "Whoah, is he... I mean, does it look like...Uhh...Yeah, maybe I better zoom in..."
"Oh, phew! Never mind!"
3rd thought: "Why am I suddenly reminded of Howdy Doody?"
4th thought: "Sheesh, this is a long post. I think I need a few more Godiva pretzels now." [wanders off in search of sweets]
