I haven't heard of that so much in the Army. Regardless, the doughnuts are going to be the extent of it, I think.
Oh what wonderful news, Rick!! Keep me posted.
And may I say a word about the thread that Hair and I have been promoting to get the kennel bill expenses down for Andy's parents? We got word that the bill (which was nearly a thousand dollars) is paid down to within around $50! And all the checks aren't in yet!!
I'm just so happy about that.
Good morning!
Corin - you can always come visit sunny and warm Florida. That flu ain't nothing a weekend in the Keys can't cure! ;-D
Rose - I'm so sorry that I left so early last night and missed your visit! Congrats on the job, chica! (((Rose)))
Ramius - thanks for the jukebox play by play. I'll be humming those tunes all morning.
Hair - package will arrive Monday morning via UPS. *grin*
*waves to everyone else*
so'jers is weak... didn't figger civilians were in on it tho...
congrats darlin'... well deserved I'm sure...
It's been fun.... Let me know if you see the website update...
Good morning! We'll await the precious package!
Joshua got up wanting doughnuts this morning, which might have something to do with the fact that it was one of the compound words he learned yesterday in school! LOL
So we're off to Paradise in a bit.
;-D
I'm proud to work for them, just the same. Helping them put HE on the bad guys is something I can feel good about.
congrats darlin'... well deserved I'm sure...
*Aw shucks*
They aren't the same donut at all. Krispy Kreme are nasty little fried balls of sugar. Nothing to them, they've got the texture of cotton candy. Dunkin Donuts makes a nice solid thing. Krispy Kreme always makes me think of French pastries.
Not that they have either in Fort Collins, and I'm away from the donuts like the poison they are right now.
Dunkin Donuts also has the best fairly cheap coffee you can buy...though I know that doesn't matter to you. ;-) And they're open at crazy hours of the day and night. It's a good place to get a sugar or caffeine fix when it's late or early...and almost no where else is open around here!
Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned there isn't one in Fort Collins.
We got about an inch of snow last night... I'm debating, drive or take the bus? But with classes out the bus only runs once an hour, so I think I'll drive.
There must be SOME donut and coffee chain there...I guess I'll just hafta explore...
As if I really need 'em.
And speaking of the website, I have several months worth of updating to do (new pics, testimonials, info on the "Hobbit Hole Special", etc.)... hopefully sometime this week.
One of these days, I am going to make my own donuts.
BTW, Shipley's donuts are *the* best. Kirspy Kreme's are too greasy, and Dunkin Donuts' are heavy.
Keep in mind, though, the last donuts I had were from the Tom Thumb bakery. LOL.
Oh, sure, there must be. I've seen a donut shop somewhere...
Am being good and eating a nice omelet.
Heretic.
Granted, they're not the same when you buy them in the store. But, if you haven't had them fresh and hot from the store, you haven't really had Krispy Kremes.
I like heavy, cake-y donuts. My favorite is a chocolate glazed from Dunkin Donuts, which is almost the health choice there - no filling, no frosting, no little sprinkles.
Make your own? Adventurous woman! Perhaps we should move Entmoot to your house...
