At my office, we have a couple of old BMX bikes that were picked up at garage sales, including one spray-painted blue and white with a small Star of David awkwardly inscribed on the front with a Sharpie and the words "East Side" scratched out on the tube.

We ride the bikes around the office because it's like 8 guys in a 3000+ square-foot warehouse (and because we've camped out in the good offices, but those aren't quite near the restroom).

I didn't get a cow when I started. Instead we got an office convection oven. I bake bread in it from time to time, though it's actually proved more popular for lunchtime frozen pizzas. There's also a panini press. Today our CEO brought in turkey soup leftovers and some ribs.

(We're hiring, but mostly looking for a really good computer vision guy at the moment: http://www.nearbuysystems.com/company/vision )
