Two Bagels and a Bialy

I didn't intend to consume two bagels and a bialy in two hours this morning. But that's what happened. And sometimes things happen.

Stopped into Doughnut Plant for a Carrot Cake Doughnut before today's Open House marathon, but there were NO Carrot Cake Doughnuts to be found. The other flavours didn't sound enticing at the moment, so I strolled a few doors down to Kossar's Bialys for...

...a Bialy! With Coffee, of course.

I ate the still warm bialy in the bakery, sitting on one of those four stools facing Grand Street.

90% of the way though, the baker rolled our a new batch of HOT Cinnamon-Raisin Bagels. Oh man. I jammed the remaining bialy in my mouth (ever so gracefully) and stood in line for the bagel.

It was beautiful.

Soon after, I made the short walk south to our Open House on Essex Street. Caroline, my super energetic and absolutely wonderful co-worker, bustled though the apartment doors ten minutes later, greeting me with a bag of Oat Bagels from Ess-a-Bagel. I don't know about you, but I've never been one to refuse a bagel.

Happy Sunday ^_^
