The Strudel Girl

There she was in the bakery window. It was love at first sight. Well, she didn't see me, but I loved her from the moment I saw her, carrying that cinnamon strudel.

Oh, the Germanity! I knew she'd never love me. I was too different from her. But maybe, because opposites attract, she wouldn't care about what I was. It's about what's inside that counts.

I made my decision. I entered the bakery, and went right up to her.

"Hello," I said meekly, hoping that she liked the strong silent type.

"Um..."she replied.

"I was wondering..." I said, "Would you, maybe, you know, go out with me?"

"But how could I? You're a square."

"I know I'm a bit old fashioned, but –"

"No, I mean that you are, literally a square. A Mini-Wheat. I can't date food."
