Makes my day

In the foyer of the big brick building at Little Green, students often set up bake sales, t-shirt sales, and all kinds of fund-raising efforts. When I walked through after my classes, I could see that the table had been covered with a green sheet and plastic bins of cookies.

"Anything vegan?" I asked the sleepy student with the cash box.

He waved his arm at the sign on the table. "We're an animal rights' group. It's all vegan."

Score. For a couple of dollars, I walked away with a brownie, a chocolate chip muffin, and a handful of cookies. I have to stay on campus late today to chair a candidacy exam, but at least now I've got a late afternoon snack.
