Every year we make a ton of Honey Bunnies around Easter.  We know that you love ‘em and we’re glad to make them for you.  Really, we are.  However, making them is a very tedious process.  We can kick out 50 loaves on Honey Whole Wheat in about 15 minutes.  It takes an hour to make 50 Honey Bunnies so you can imagine how happy we are the first week after Easter.

Two years ago one of our employees, Terry Fuselier, happened to have his baseball bat in his truck.  He looked at me and said, “We should bash those extra bunnies we have.”  We did.  And the Annual Destruction of the Leftover Bunnies was created.

The poor little fellas didn’t know what hit ‘em.

This year the event was expanded.  We included a couple of more people, documented the event, and had weapons to pick from this time.

Our Weapons of Mass Destruction

While I was trying to decide between the tire iron and the hammer, Beau Lemoine walked up with his golf club and really got the party started.

It took years on the course to perfect that swing.

While Beau’s swing was elegant and sent the bunnies straight and true, it lacked the punch needed to lift them up over the roof.  That’s when Terry fused his baseball technique with Beau’s golf club for a truly stunning shot.

Yes, that is a bunny head flying over the building.

Since I’m left handed I couldn’t go with the golf club so I decided it was Hammer Time.

Stop, Collaborate, and Listen

For those of you that worry about waste (we do, too) the remnants of the bunnies went home with Sandy Henley to feed her son’s chickens. 

And now you know what will happen next year to that bunny you don’t buy!  Yes, that is a threat!
