MagicalRecord not saving?

Question

// Setup magical record
[MagicalRecord setupCoreDataStack];

NSLog(@"Groups at startup: %d", [Group findAll].count);

[Group createEntity];
[[NSManagedObjectContext defaultContext] save];

I've placed this bit of code in my AppDelegate. Everytime I start up the app, I see the count as 0. What am I missing?

Per MagicalRecord's github page..

MagicalRecord provides a background saving queue so that saving all data is performed off the main thread, in the background. This means that it may be necessary to use MR_saveNestedContexts rather than the typical MR_save method in order to persist your changes all the way to your persistent store;
