Bagel Bit

For lunch I usually have a bagel, and every so often I'm lucky enough to get one where the hole has swelled shut, making the bagel look more like a hamburger bun. This is good because it's much easier to spread cream cheese on it when the hole is absent. Rather than trying to maneuver the knife in a circular motion, you can just drag it right across.

Mmmmmm... bagels and cream cheese.

I hate the circular motion, especially in the morning when I'm rushing.

I also feel blessed when received a hole-free bagel, when it has more of a belly button than an actual void.

Haha. I was going to use the belly-button comparison myself but I thought it too crude. I'm glad you mentioned it.
