Brevity by Dan Thompson for April 17, 2015

And absolute flour corrupts absolutely.

Everybody thinks running a bakery is a piece of cake…but Dad Parker had to work his buns off to rise to where he is today…and he’s sure not rolling in dough!

He only bought what he really kneaded, and thought hard about every pizza equipment.

I hope Parker Junior will carry on the work he was bread for.

Thanks everybody who came to yesterday’s Ballard St!

No puns in the oven today, just noticing that Parker Junior’s shirt. I suspect his name is Peter and that his career is about to take a new trajectory. But if that’s a radioactive spider, it begs the question: are they baking a Doc Toon’s Nuclear Coffee cake?

Don’t overwhelm him, Dad, he’ll wind up couring in the corner. Or, like Rapunzel, he may retreat to the top of his tour. On the other hand, he may resent the responsibility and glour at you behind your back.Well, it’s time to start my day – gotta take a shour.

Wait, shouldn’t it be Parker and Nephew?

I don’t want any spiders in my bread! Dad may be using that special EZ-Bake Nuclear Oven.

The Pillsbury Dough Boy Spiderman? He’ll use sticky pizza dough to get from building to building. Fighting crime one cannoli at a time!

I see now.

Dan, I was going to say that the spider was a nice touch, but that was too obvious.However… the tie certainly is a nice touch!

…And that’s the way the Parker rolls!
