I’m a dedicated bruncher. Every Sunday morning I take the short stroll to my favorite brunch spot. You have to get in line early if you want to get a good table. So, anyway, as I’m approaching the building I’m pumped to discover that I’m the only person there. Awesome! Suddenly a strange sight catches my eye. A baby chick smiled at me from the wall! Who would have the audacity to deface such a lovely establishment? Oh well. I’m hungry, so I’m just going to head inside and start drooling over the menu. The omelettes here are the best!
