It was one of those mornings today. I was a little restless in my sleep, but when the alarm went off I was one with my bed and snoozed until a little after six. Which meant I would be late if I did my typical routine. So I made myself the deal that if I could get my ass out of the house in 20 minutes I could get breakfast at Einstein's.

I have heard many a person complain that Chicago has no decent bagels, and they may well be right. Being the ignorant Midwesterner that I am, however, I wholly enjoy lox etc. on Einstein's Challah rolls. I get them about once a month, often under similar circumstances to today's self-bribing. Now I'm at work, well-rested, caffeinated and fed. I just need something to do.

ETA:Livejournal spell-check does not know "Challah". I am shocked and dismayed.

Silly Gentile, Challah rolls are not bagels.

Yes, I know. I was making a leap in terms of new yorker judgement of chicago's jewish baked and boiled goods. Forgive me for not spelling it out!

New York Bagel and Bialy which is like 4600 W Touhy is pretty good.

I'll have to check it out. Definitely not on my way to work, though!
