So Busted: A Meditation in Two Parts

PART ONE: BIRTHDAY BUSTEDFor my birthday (in February) Alex sent me a lovely Cookie Press from amazon.com. It was so lovely, in fact, that I kept it in the box and never used it. When Alex called to ask how I liked it I said: "I love it!" And when she said: "Are you using it?" I said: "Of course I am! I'm using it right now."Then Alex stayed over last night.BUSTED! (It was still in the box when she got here).PART TWO: GOURMET BUSTEDI run a website called The Amateur Gourmet. I cook things when I have a craving and extoll the wonders of fresh, culturally significant produce.Then tonight I got hungry and found Entenmann's cookies in Lauren's pantry.BUSTED! (I ate 6).The end.
