Could there be a SWEETER DAY of the year?

It is good to be a BBQ Judge.  And now it is even gooder to be a Steak Cookoff Association Judge.  Life just got even better.  Woo Hoo!!!

I would if the only KK in town hadn't gone out of business. :sad:

Tomorrow is National Doughnut Day.

Is anyone going to have a special celebration?

By the way, what is everyone's favorite doughnut?

I don't eat doughnuts oftern, but when it comes to DD vs KK, I prefer a plain, glazed KK hot off the line - but there are no longer stores in my area.

I've also been known to enjoy an Entenmenn's doughnut - not even the crumb topped or chocolte coated ones that everyone else seems to love, but the completely plain ones (or maybe powdwered sugar).

But in the end, I don't think you can beat a home made one, topped with cinnamon and sugar.

Dunkin Donuts is also giving away freebies, but I you are required to buy a beverage first. But who doesn't like coffee anyway?

Well, I don't like coffee - but I enjoyed an iced tea with my Dunkin' Donut!

After frying doughnuts for a couple of years in my mom's bakery back in the mid-'50s, I didn't look at a doughnut for about fifty years.

I like plain cake doughnuts if they are not too greasy and I like churros. Otherwise nada.

I celebrated with a packaged of Mrs. Bairds powdered donuts that were procured from an office vending machine. Not exactly a artisan product, but it I think it counts. :cool:
