So…White sidewalls came from a schmear??

“You see, I was baking bread, but the loaf fell into the fire, so I had to use my spear to take it out”

“The inspiration, the moment in time when Grog decided to give up on perfecting the wheel and instead invented the deli.

Bagels are basically just simple shaped soft pretzels that get boiled before being baked. That boiling step is key twice: Not only does it cause the awesome bagel texture, it makes the seeds stick better during the bake.

PITA to make at home because of that two-stage cooking. And the very stiff dough. Delicious though!

Plain bagels? Big deal. Give me a holler when you invent cream cheese.

Wheel-y great idea!

oops, I thought this was Pastis’ page ;)

So far the chiseler has invented the stair-climber, a raised flower bed, and 2 types of flower border. Wonder what would have been next.

Slywun thought quickly how to charge the same for less product, and was the first to ingeniously imagine ‘shrinkflation’: “Behold! The Cheerio!”

The early stone-masons’ workshop, obviously. And mum just found out how to grind flour to make bread, using yet another major piece of stone. Hooray!!

Eureka, we can use the bagel for wheels

So…which came first = the bagel or the wheel? Interesting ponderance…

Later, after working out the flaws, it will evolve into a doughnut.

Bagels are everywhere, but when we moved to MN from Chicago we really missed bialys.

Ah, this explains the Einstein Brothers.

Step #1 , the bagel! Now on to #2 , the cream cheese!

Bagels: Donuts rolled in cement.

When you eat them near the harbor, they are bagels. When over the ocean, they are sea-gulls. (say it out loud.)

Now if he would just hurry up and invent the glazed (honey-dipped) donut…!

Major Question: If Everything bagels have ALL the toppings, why aren’t plain bagels called NOTHING bagels?

Funny, he doesn’t look Drewish.

That stone he’s working on now is for when they go 4-wheeling.

Growing up in Grand Rapids, MI. Mom was from NY and our only access to bagels was lenderers in the refrigerated section. Just to give you an idea just how un-sophisticated they were in GR, my dad has a small heart attack, and in the hospital they ask “What did you have for breakfast?”. Dad tells them half a bagel with cream cheese only to be asked “What’s a bagel?”

Proof that the Jews invented the wheel

Next he came to a cave with a Dog breeder a bit hard of hearing. Now we have the beagle.

How did the people living in the BC period know what year it was?

Willey MUST BE running out of “INSPIRATIONS” !!! Stupid not Comic.

The epiphany actually occurred when it rolled off the breakfast table. :)

Okay,now who invented the Poppy Seed?

The inspiration was really dropping the bagel and watching it roll under the couch

I’m sure those projects were tire-ing.

Soon enough one of them will be rolling in the dough!

I often wondered how it has got its name, now I know
