Not a good idea

I realized this morning when I opened my backpack to get my breakfast that I had made a serious error in judgment.  We have some crumpets at home (boy how I love crumpets).  I put some marmalade on two of them and wrapped them in paper towels so that I could toast them once I got to work.  That was my mistake.  Crumpets are rather porous and marmalade isn’t exactly the most sticky substance (like say peanut butter).  It tends to slide around so when I opened my backpack the maramalade had oozed through the crumpets into the paper towels themselves and had potentially spread to other parts of my backpack.  It was fun to clean up and after that my fingers were quite sticky.  At least the crumpets were tasty once I finally had the chance to toast them and eat them.

Moral of the story?  Crumpets are there to be loved.
