An Independent Celebration

Holiday time, baby! Who gets to cut out early this afternoon for a long weekend? Huh?

The rest of us will just be here, "working."
Though to be honest, we may not have our full attention on what we're doing.

Oops.

Close!

"What country is this, again?"

You ever get a little punchy while you're waiting to clock out?

[giggling] "Ok, ok, now throw this York peppermint patty on it. DO IT. I dare you."

"OH MY GOSH SHE DID IT."

"Look! I made a toothbrush!

"A cake toothbrush! I AM A GENIUS. KNEEL BEFORE ZOD! MWUAH-Ha-haaaa!"

But mostly I bet you're just watching the clock and phoning it in, am I right?

"Close enough."

"Like I'm going to look up a reference image at 4 o'clock on a Friday." 

And my favorite:

Since bakers have always struggled with all those stars on the US flag, cake companies made a plastic insert they could use. Unfortunately, no one told the bakers they still have to add the rest of the flag:

I like it. Very... clean.

So remember, my fellow Americans: get out there tomorrow and celebrate our Independence the way bakers intended:

Independently.

Thanks to Denise, Sarah R., Chantene Z., Erin P., Steph K., Allison, Danae H., Ed P., & Beth H., for helping us get all this "work" done.
