This morning we stumbled upon an absolutely perfect and understatedly stunning (it was damn near hidden in plain sight) neighborhood bakery. From the doughnuts to the scones, the buddha-room bathroom to the old pink Mercury parked out back, the place was a testament to Swiss-Helvetica artfulness. Outside, we met a couple that just arrived from Austin. "Where's a good place to eat?" they said. "There isn't one," I replied, "you're in Iowa." Awkward silence (been getting a lot of those lately). "Unless you want a delicious cup o' joe & doughnut, that is. 'Cause this place is ay-may-zing...""
"According to Don Armando, the number of pendejos, even as you read this, is innumerable. It has been estimated that if pendejos could fly, the skies would be darkened and we would enter a new ice age. The pendejos would get a severe sunburn." -Jose Antonio Burciaga
