Drabble by Kevin Fagan for August 24, 2015

Oh no, say isn’t so!!!!

I like the donut shop that looks like a donut box…

Poor Ralph.

I’ll eat a plain one, but as a chocoholic….

Best to get there earlier Ralph, on the way to and from gym works the best.

It’s also whole wheat, with tofu sprinkles and lots of fiber.

I envy those who can eat plain ones – probably don’t get the stink-eye when the doctor weighs you, and find yourself cursing the tediousness of walking on a treadmill every day.

When I live in Richmond, VA, the DD on West Broad St Baked their own donuts. I wish I could find another that still does that. Plain and Bavarian Cream are my favorites. :-)

What kind of donut shop makes only one batch in the morning? The good ones are making donuts all day. There’s always good one to buy (unless you show up close to closing.)

The donut cases on grocery stores and quickie-marts are different. They get one batch in the morning, and then they’re gone. But if you wait that long, then they’re going to be stale anyway.

7-11 on my route home from work used to save me four donuts when they came in toward the end of the night because if they didn’t, they’d be gone by the time I got there around 10pm. And I didn’t ask them to save them; one of the staffers took it upon her own initiative. I wound up marrying that woman about four years later.
