A Day in the Life of a Donut

If Forrest Gump says that life is like a box of chocolates, I'd like to say that life is like a donut. Why? Because you always come full circle in the end!

Now, don't make me explain why. I just thought that up!

I'm writing this post to make my friends in Singapore envious about my Krispy Kreme adventures. They don't have a branch in Singapore and they've been telling me to bring or send some. In the past few months I've written about KK twice (here and here)! Just goes to show how much time -

(1) I spend hanging out at Krispy Kreme

KK is a great place to go to when meeting friends,

the Sweetie and work and blog (because of the free wifi!).

(2) I spend consuming hoards of donuts

I'm trying to gain weight so I have every right to eat as much donuts as I'd want to.

(3) I spend eating donuts with my son, Mom and Sweetie

It's great merienda food! I got my sweet tooth from my Mom :)

Donuts and a Talakayan Forum

I guess I'm a donut person even though my tonsils usually protest about the barrage of sugar. When I was a kid we usually had home-made donuts for merienda. Remember those mixes you could just buy from the grocery? I usually helped in mixing the batter and then my Tita would fry it and I'd have the time of my life sprinkling sugar on the donut. Nomnomnomnom.

Nowadays all you need to do is go to a donut shop and buy. So yesterday I decided to spend my afternoon and work at Krispy Kreme. If donut-scent was available as aroma oil, incense or a candle, I'd probably buy it because it keeps me awake, alert and productive!

I was surprised to see a lot of friends at KK yesterday and if I were to join the the Krispy Kreme Fave Fan Search I'd probably share my experience about why I like hanging out at Krispy Kreme. (1) Food + free wifi gets me going and productive and (2) Meeting up with friends.

Yesterday was fun-filled (and I did work!) since I got to chat with a number of friends that I don't see often: Jonas and Ederic who I last saw together in Singapore a few months ago, Juned, Az, Lace, AJ, Nina, Eric the Reyna, Phoebe, Mom bloggers - Jane, Teacher Julie and Noemi.

Happy 6 dozen years Krispy Kreme!
