Evidence From A Donut of One's Own

A screenshot from Google Maps, with three separate routes highlighted.

Kurston's shortcut map. The red route is route to be avoided. The blue line is Shortcut A, yellow is Shortcut B.

A container of white chocolate raspberry ice cream. Only the center is scooped and the raspberry swirl is visible. The ice cream around the scooped center is pristine white chocolate.

Eric's wife's ice cream scooping technique.
