Speaking of donuts, what's your favorite?

Mine: Old Fashioned Buttermilk Bars 😋

In the sixties, there was a donut shop in Santa Monica that made the best ever!

I like yeast donuts best, preferably with a filling. I like both fruit and creme filling, but I suppose my favorite is Bavarian creme. While I’m at it, I’ll add bacon to that bad boy.

7. Just saw this article from Washington Post - America's doughnut capital. Can we stop at just one?

"People all over the world eat fried dough, and nobody does doughnuts like the United States. Doughnuts can be found year-round across this great nation in a huge array of flavors, shapes and styles.

But astute reader Susan Green suspects that America may be riven by a hidden doughnut divide. She observes that some parts of the country are saturated with a single doughnut brand, while others host a profusion of independent doughnut purveyors.

On National Doughnut Day, we wondered: Is Susan right? If so, can we map the nation’s deep-fried fault lines? And where is America’s true doughnut capital?"

From Dunkin’ Donuts.

I very rarely indulge but when I do, I like those.

Or a cake donut dusted in cinnamon-sugar.

With a tall glass of 2% milk or a hot cuppa Darjeeling tea.
