Bite-sized news we think you’ll like.

Hello friends and people that just started baking sourdough bread. Welcome back to The Post Up.

Dive right in to stories about small businesses, distractions worth being distracted by, and food news that will put you in a good mood.

So stay where you are (because you have to) and give it a read (because you want to).

You Deserve A Treat

More time at home sure made everyone pick up a new hobby pretty freaking fast. Bread baking is on the rise (sorry, we had to) and puzzle companies are running out of inventory. And when all that new origami and doodling works up an appetite, this survey says you're probably reaching for a 'comfort snack' instead of that bag of kale in the back of the fridge. It's no surprise that chocolate took the top spot and we've got three words for you: chocolate chip cookies.

Listen, putting up with this new normal means you deserve a treat any time you want—but we know that baking isn't everyone's forte. So when you're ready to leave it to the professionals, we suggest the Cornflake Chocolate Chip Marshmallow Cookie from Milk Bar.

And if you still feel like putting a marginal amount of effort into your sugar kick, check out Extraordinary Desserts in San Diego. They will deliver freshly made cookie dough right to your door. All you have to do is put it in the oven, but we recommend you still throw some flour on your counter, take a picture for Instagram, and tell your friends how much you love baking.

Feeding Hero Nurses with Steve Aoki

The Civic Labs team at Postmates has once again partnered with @FeedHeroNurses—and this time super DJ Steve Aoki joined the charge.

His team at Pizzaoki provided fresh pies that we delivered to healthcare workers on the frontlines at TSC at USC, LA USC Medical Center, and UCLA Health. Want to get involved in our crusade to #FeedHeroNurses? Visit feedheronurses.org.

Thank you to all of the doctors and nurses who are working hard to keep us all healthy.

What is the Future of Live Music?

Yes, Coachella got postponed. But there's going to be a music festival INSIDE Minecraft on Saturday, so that kind of helps? We think. Maybe?

Everything is changing so fast that even Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, and Stephen Colbert are teaming up for a fundraiser—instead of flaming a ratings war. See, the entire entertainment industry has had to rethink the concert experience. But the people know what we need (live music) and know when we need it (constantly).

The special is Saturday, April 18 from 8-10pm and host Lady Gaga is just the tip of the iceberg. Look out for performances by Paul McCartney, Billie Eilish, John Legend, Chris Martin, Kasey Musgraves, and a whole lot of other people you had tickets to see.

At least you won't have to stand on your tippy toes to get a good look at the stage.

Spot the Difference

At the end of every Post Up, we'll tease your brain with a little game that makes you think.

Today we want you to Spot The Difference. There are 7 differences between these 2 images. Can you spot them all?
