A BIRTHDAY......PRETZEL?

I was puzzled this morning at work when my boss called for a staff meeting.  He usually tells me the day before that he is going to have one and what the agenda will cover.  We all gathered around a table, me with pad and pen in hand and he said, "I have something to tell you."  My probation is just about up and I wondered what I had done.  Then he opened a bag, put a soft pretzel on a napkin, stuck a candle in it, lit it and they all sang "Happy Belated Birthday" to me.  How cool!  It was a real Philly "cake".  I am so sick of cake, cookies, etc. from the holidays that this was a really nice treat.  And it was still warm.  Yum.  There is no mustard on it in this picture, but there was when I ate it!
