Do they still even make them? All the KK stores here went out of business.

I almost feel like attending the FAIR conference just so I can bring him some actual good donuts. There is the most amazing LES donut place: its pretty much just one guy and he makes everything by hand. The glazes are amazing: he uses only fresh, seasonal fruit. You can get them at Dean and Delucca and about two other places.

And I don't even like donuts.

I live in NC. In the South, Krispy Kreme is alive and well.

I wouldn't mind checking out your donut place, though! Not that I really need to. LOL

I think they still make Krispy Kreme, though I haven't seen them around in quite a while. There used to be a store not far from my office, but it closed.

We have a couple of good, family-owned donut shops in the Brazos Valley. Much better than Krispy Kreme. As far as Utah donuts, the Lehi bakery is very good, and the now-defunct bakery in downtown Payson was fantastic.

Of course, with age and cholesterol problems, I don't eat donuts much anymore.

Sounds like that's probably a good thing considering your current "hunger strike". LOL

You will likely starve yourself to death. Anyhow, DCP said that he is going to be "on hiatus" for the next couple of weeks.

Man does not live by donuts alone, Scratch. I could stand to drop a few pounds, anyway. :-)

Runtu, have you gotten the shakes yet? Hopefully, Dr. Peterson will note that he used the wrong name before you waste away to nothing. You would think that apologists would be really good at apologies, wouldn't you?
