Also, a Word With MarieBelle About Those Rose Petals …

While we’re on the subject of twee tea parlors, we have to have a word with MarieBelle.

Yes, we love rose-petal doughnuts, and we’re reassured to see that someone can afford to burn through so many fake flowers (even if they probs came from a Greenpoint 99-cent store), but not even Franck, the wedding planner in Father of the Bride, could have dreamed up something this precious. Just stop it right now!
