I was on my way out the door after my Sunday shift when I passed by the foosball table and spied a lone brownie.

I suppose there isn’t anything all that weird about a baked good sitting somewhere random in the office, but it struck me as odd for a few reasons:

In our building, one can be rest assured that if food is left lying around (deliberately or otherwise) it will be consumed with fervor not unlike a swarm of locusts attacking a field of corn. Likewise - given the factor previously mentioned - folks tend to keep their food under armed guard….

Granted, it happens to be the weekend, and nobody is in the building to swarm…I decided that this brownie might be in trouble, so in an attempt to reunite owner and baked good, I posted my discovery on craigslist. The posting is here if you think this brownie might be yours.

Here is a picture of it so you can compare it to your missing snack. I hope this eases any emotional distress being felt at the notion of this orphaned brownie:

Carry on, wayward brownie…
