July 30 is National Cheesecake Day!
To celebrate, The Cheesecake Factory is offering any slice of cheesecake for half price. Since my most favorite kind of cheesecake is the Snickers Bar Chunks Cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory: "Our Original Cheesecake Baked with lots of Chunks of delicious Snickers® Bar. Topped with Caramel, Chocolate, and even more Snickers, with a Chocolate Crust and Finished with Whipped Cream...," I should be overjoyed today. But I'M NOT! Why??

BECAUSE THERE IS NO CHEESECAKE FACTORY IN MICHIGAN!!

The closest location is hours away at some mall in Ohio. And even more baffling, is that according to the company's website:
In 1949, Evelyn Overton baked one of her New York-style cheesecakes for the employer of her husband, Oscar. The employer requested additional cakes to give as gifts. She rolled the idea into a small-scale bakery operated first from a shop and then from the finished basement of the family's Detroit home. She continued to run the enterprise there for more than 20 years.
Did you catch that folks? The Cheesecake Factory originated in Detroit! Sigh.
