Damn it, Jim beat me too it! Having been subjected to the darkside of the .NET lately I can honestly say I feel bloated and somewhat icky and violated (OK I'm taking this too far) ... just like I would be if I ate some huge monsterous thing topped off with marzepan.
However, some cup cakes spread throughout the day leave me feeling fufilled because they get the job done (and done right) without leaving me feeling ill afterwards.
