If you need another reason to skip the community food table at work, I give you Mr. Scrubby.

He’s cute, but I recommend that you skip the pot-luck table. Scrubby likes buttercream and has his eyes on your breakfast.

That reminds me that I’ve been meaning to bake blueberry scones to take into work. I try to keep the cat hair content to a minimum, but you know how it goes…
When I worked in a traditional office, I never at the food they tried to give us. Don’t reward me with food. I am not a pet. I work for money. Skip the doughnuts bossman and give me $5.
I used to bake a lot, but yeah, the cat hair factor is a problem. I can’t keep it out my iced tea, forget about keeping the buttercream pristine. It’s a pity, because I make an awesome chocolate buttercream…
@averagejane My husband has a great Cook’s Illustrated recipe for blueberry scones. I think it calls for a 1/2 cup of tabby hair.
@genX Holy crap, my sentiments exactly. We are separated at birth (I’m 1975).
@Perrik I love chocolate buttercream. We used a TUB of frosting on the cupcakes, yesterday, and the only good part about buying pre-made frosting is that it comes w/o the fuzz.
yummay
Scrubby or the cupcake, cols? Both?
I made a pan of homemade manicotti for a work potluck once. I got it there only to open it up and realize that about a third of it was missing. It “magically” had made its way in to the hubby-to-be’s lunch. I don’t need your cat… I have a perfectly good walking garbage disposal to disrupt my food presentations.
And when he fails… I have my dog fox, who will be more than happy to lick the sauce off anything and leave hair all over everything else.
YUM! This is why I bring only cookies now. Anything else of culinary prowess is destined for failure.
If ever there was a picture that deserved a LOL caption…. ur cupcaeks has flavr… im in ur office party eatin ur treatz…
