You are going to wish I didn’t post this. Even with the last of them dispersed to hungry college students and absolutely not-a-one left for my own consumption, I regret that I’m posting this. Because thinking about them just makes me sad that they are all gone. It makes me want to make more. Which I won’t. At least not tonight.

But why call it the Bella Bar you ask? You may remember a character from some of the way-back posts who went by the nickname ‘Petting Zoo.‘ She earned a reputation for chewing on gingerbread and coconut flakes. She was even featured in a certain Alumni Magazine for her misdeeds. Well, when she isn’t terrorizing baked goods, Petting Zoo goes by the alias ‘Bella.’
In addition to gnawing on inappropriate foodstuffs, Bella does imitations. Here she is doing Lindsey Lohan.
Bella the Cat is the Kitchen God’s occasionally better behaved sister. The markings on her fur also look suspiciously like the pattern created when peanut butter and Nutella mate. The Bella Bar is their love child.
Love it!
