I'm scared. A new donut shop opened in my neighborhood.

not a chain place, independantly owned! I hear the donut sirens calling. Their song is so enchanting.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO????!!!!!!

You are powerless to resist the mighty siren song of the cruller...go...go now...! And bring me back a Boston creme, 'k? Thx! :hi:

I like them hard as a rock. Perfect for coffee dipping.

you are cruel and evil...but in a nice way.

Plus it's always nice to support your local businesses.

the flashing "hot donuts now" is all the excuse I ever need!!

:hi:

Just like the duck.

I once had to work the late (not overnight, 7PM-2AM) shift in the 24 hour store in my district. At one point, there was nobody in the store except these two middle-aged CT state troopers who were having the most impassioned discussion of how unfair the stereotype was of cops hanging out all night in coffeeshops eating donuts...while they're sitting in a Starbucks eating espresso brownies and drinking lattes. I really think that each was angling for permission to get a glazed donut and a cup of black from the other...because they didn't really seem to be enjoying their dinner very much and they seemed way too concerned with appearances.

Now...paramedics...really do spend all day hanging out in the coffeeshop waiting for a call. I honestly think our local ambulance crew (my HS friend Sammy and his partner) might drink a brewer-carafe (2.775L) of coffee daily each. They just park the rig in our parking lot and wait for a call because we're across from the on-ramp to the interstate, located on the main drag through town, right smack in the middle of their coverage zone.

back in the day, they were the only places open 24 hours, so when the cops needed a coffee/bathroom break, that's where they went.

Well, it worked for Ulysses.

if you don't add the new place to your schedule it will become invisible to you

for me it helps that i know how donuts make me feel, sick, bloated, and hung-over, definitely not worth the taste, which is sickening sweet anyway

just stay away (unless you need a cop) and save yourself the self-hating

we don't have to support every independent business, besides, most small business people around here are GOP so it makes it pretty easy to not give them my $$$

have a chocolate covered and report back concerning if they deep fried the coating on.

I have vowed never to set foot in that restaurant. The moment I do I'll be eating there all the time.

then you should have nothing to worry about.

I think I can still work with it.

thinking about it.

(How are the raspberry jelly donuts?)

They send facebook updates on what's coming out of the oven. Just now it was Marcona Almond with Cherry and Bacon Maple Bars with double Bacon. Jeeze....They're trying to kill me....I can't de friend them as I need to keep tabs on their wicked ways.

That is cruel.

Salted Caramel and Ginger Pear.... They even sent me a coupon for a free one

They know where I live---:scared: :scared: :scared:

Yes they update the facebook everytime a new batch comes out...

The real solid, heavy, clunky sort of donuts. I'm hooked on those!

I have to drive past one of those places every morning, a shop where the staff yells at each other in Polish. Sometimes the steering wheel just turns and the car parks in the lot. It's possessed! Only explanation I can think of.

Bon Apetit!

:hi:

Cake donuts? I feel as if I have been living in the wilderness. I have never heard of such a creation.

you need your ass kicked first?

You'll feel so bad in a little while that you'll never want another donut again.

You'll be sick of them in a week
