ON-GOING: Candidate Cookies At Three Brothers Bakery

If you, like me, are continually seeking solace in the form of booze and/or baked goods during the trainwreck that is the 2016 Presidential Campaign, go to 3 Brothers Bakery.  In addition to offering their regular menu comprising standouts such as the buttery hamantaschen, creative cupcakes (burger??), and lovely challah, the Bakery is once again offering an election special: sugar cookies adorned with the images of the Democratic and Republican candidates as well as "Gingy", 3 Brothers' write-in selection.

If you can't tell Trump to "eat it," you might as well eat him.

Lest you prematurely conclude that since, as in the case of this reporter (and anyone who doesn't think the leader of the free world should be a misogynist xenophobe), I'm With Her and therefore will certainly not be consuming a Trump cookie, consider the wisdom of the Addams Family credo:

Sic gorgiamus allos subjectatos nunc.*

(We gladly feast on those that would subdue us.)

I suggest picking up a dozen for your debate-viewing party.

*Yes, I know the Latin isn't perfect but neither are you so get over it.
