1. A few weeks ago, while browsing Baba Bakery’s shelves, a regular noticed something unusual—a tiny ceramic cat perched on top of an ordinary bagel box. No one claimed responsibility for it, and soon enough, customers started finding similar whimsical items around the store. Soon enough, the little ceramic animals became a hit among locals.
