Photo of the Day: Pain au Chocolat

Robyn Lee, who usually posts Serious Eats's Photo of the Day, is once again on vacation in an undisclosed location. And since she would never highlight one of her own amazing photos in this space, I'm going to hijack this feature today and do it for her. Above is a pain au chocolat from Bouley Market. And, in keeping with Robyn's penchant for anthropomorphizing food, I would go so far as to say this lil' guy almost has a face. See it?

And, just to mortify Robyn the next time she logs into the site from the road, here's a bonus PotD that's been run through the lolcat-izer:

Yeah, I know. It's been a long day.

The face is saying "I'm Serious Eats". Robyn's face reveals how much fun the SE team has on a hard day of taste testing---ha!

It's not fun when Robyn gets angry and attacks you with pomegranate ice cream bars. Whirling dervish!

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I LEAVE.

CHAOS.

Just kidding. I am not too mortified. :) It made me laugh. Which is good because my friend and I just wasted 90 minutes on the wrong bus in this undisclosed location.

I see the face and it looks happy. I would be happy to eat this lovely little pastry person, but the face...gee it kinda seems canabalistic. However not being a pastry myself ,I think I could eat it, yeah I could eat it.

Okay, the face I'm seeing, it is desolate... inconsolable, almost. It says: "Why are all these people being so mean to me? What have I ever done to them?"

XD Good one, Adam.

That cute face looks far too happy, I don't think I could eat it!!
