As as nation, we need to start being honest with ourselves:

1) That, to the right, is not a muffin. It's a cupcake. It doesn't matter that the coffee shop sells it in the breakfast area next to the bagels.

2) Our breakfast cupcakes need not be larger than usual cupcakes just because we label them muffins. You can't tell because there's no size comparison, but that breakfast cupcake is the size of two of my fists.  

3) Racism is still a problem.

The truth will set you free.

My first foray into Seattle Chinese food and look what I find!! Though I don't like how fortune cookies are more often nagging advice than actual fortunes, I can't help but acknowledge that this one will go on my fridge.
