Sweet genius

Working in close proximity to a good bakery is perilous indeed, and is not made any easier by the free espresso a mere progress bar away.  Chocolate donuts are a clear favourite for me, and nothing ruins my morning quite like the ‘chocolate icing stuck to the bag’ debacle which seems to unfairly target the highest calibre of super-sticky-sweet-iced-donut.  Yes, I’d be the first in line to growl out the inside of the paper bag, but it just not becoming of a gentleman now, is it.
