Big weekend news guys! So big- there’s going to be a second Tumblr post today all about it. Maybe another tomorrow. Tweets, Facebook posts, generalized yelling and screaming- point is, we’re going to be all over this crap for the next couple of days, so you better start preparing yourself for becoming so overcome with excitement, you may need all new underwear.
First up, Saturday is “Brunch All Day” at DeKalb til 6pm, meaning we were asked to make special “brunchy” things (yeah, that’s a word now. I didn’t invent it, so don’t look at me). We used to do an insanely popular brunch at our original (and long shuttered) Bay Ridge store, but haven’t made any of our signature doughnuts, breakfast sandwiches, sticky buns etc for ages now. One item in particular gets asked for over and over and over again…..and since we love you guys so much, we’re bringing back our famous scones for one day only!
Now I know some of you are having a little trouble getting really excited about scones. Really, no, I get it. Even telling you that there’s going to be blueberries involved isn’t going to be enough, and that’s fine. I’ve still got more for you to get excited about:
It’s time for the Beta launch of Twilight Market! I’ve probably mentioned this before, but this year the market is being run by spectacle wunderkids Joann Kim and Jen Lyon, two of my favorite people of all time because they do nothing but show you a good time. It’s their job. Just like Santa Claus.
And we’ve got SPANK ROCK playing! Even if you’ve never heard of them, you have to admit it’s really fun saying “Spank Rock”. I know I’ll be saying it as much as I possibly can over the next two days until Matt eventually threatens to divorce me.
So now you’ve got your weekend planned, you have the exciting promise of another riveting post going down sometime today, the knowledge of impending scones…..what more could you want? How about some delicious sweets in your belly to end the workweek on a high note?
