Working my way through a bunch of beautiful birthday puzzles! Here's one from Ellembee Gift that I love to pieces -- and yes, now I'm going to measure chocolate chips with my heart. #jigsawpuzzles #puzzlesky

Completed puzzle depicting the interior of a bakery, with wall shelves and a large counter glass case filled with chocolate baked goods, chocolate candies and bake mixes featuring chocolate. The right side of the bakery counter is loaded with chocolate cakes and cookies packaged in bags and jars. On top of the center counter area is another glass case holding three different chocolate cakes and a cheesecake. On the left side of the counter is an open jar of chocolate chips on its side, contents spilling and falling to the floor. A bowl is overflowing with chocolate chips and a ingredient scoop, chips piled on the counter. A packaged bakery mix is behind the bowl. Featured on the left wall of the bakery is a leafy green plant on a shelf next to a large sign decorated with chocolate chip cookies. The quote on the sign reads "Don't ever let a recipe tell you how many chocolate chips to use. You measure that shit with your heart."

Fellow jigsaw puzzlers: what do you do with puzzles missing a piece? I did this one a few months ago and eventually returned it to its box. Should I recycle it? Donate it with full disclosure? Leave it in a hospital waiting room? Suggestions gratefully welcomed. #puzzlesky #jigsawpuzzles
