Hey Maya,82Please respect copyright.PENANAqdMVU4xPET
You’ve got the wrong Eli.82Please respect copyright.PENANAHVFPpfFMeW
I would love to say I was scheduled for a group meeting, but I am currently eating cereal on my couch, pants-less, and I don’t know anyone named Erin (or her offensive muffins).
Best of luck though. Team meetings and baked disappointment sound like a vibe.

No worries. Happens more than you'd think.82Please respect copyright.PENANAv8JjSm9pbQ
A guy once sent me his grocery list. It was 100% just “almond milk, floss, condoms, hot Cheetos.”82Please respect copyright.PENANAgxCg1JuSkx
No context. I still think about him.
Tell Erin I support her, but also: maybe try banana bread.

is this our meet-cute?82Please respect copyright.PENANAOPEvZUsYot
like in a chaotic email inbox kind of way?
you insulted a guy’s muffins, complimented banana bread, and accidentally messaged me.82Please respect copyright.PENANALuvtxD132q
i don’t know. feels cinematic.

glad you’re on board — who knew muffin drama could bring two wrong elis together?
also, if you start a support group for victims of questionable baked goods, count me in as president.
looking forward to more of your cereal pants stories and maybe some actual muffin updates.
