Stupid Panera Lids.

Last night I made a quick stop at Panera on my way home. I grabbed a Smokehouse Turkey sandwich and one of those frozen coffee/caramel concoctions with the whipped cream on the top. Yeah I know it's high in calories but hey, I was weak.

Anyway, the dome shaped lid that they put on the cup has a hole at the top for the HUGE straws they use. Have you ever seen those straws they have there? Seriously, I think you could fit a dime down it. The dime may not touch the sides on it's way through. Gigantic straws aside, when the gal put the lid on that little brown cup of love, it "squished" caramel and whipped cream out the hole and on the exterior of the straw.

I left the store and got in my truck. By the time I made it to the truck, the whipped cream/caramel slurry had begun to run down the side of the dome shaped lid. I ask you. What would you do is this situation? Of course, you lick if off.

Now it probably wasn't your ordinary lick. I think I may have been really working the sides of the gigantic straw and the edges of the hole with my tongue. I mean I was into it. I must have been really carried away to have not noticed the two girls walking very slowly and staring at me through the windshield. As I finished and went to start the truck, I made eye contact with my 2 fans. To my shock, they both looked at me in complete disgust, rolled their eyes and made for the door.

Looking back I realized how that must have looked. Ladies, if by some strange twist of fate, you are reading this blog, I apologize for that display. I really am a nice guy. Oh and thanks for not taking a video of it.
