on the way to work today i passed by the opening on a new donut store. it used to be a winchells but they closed down and happy donuts moved in. i didn’t think anything of it at first, but then i saw the sign.

it read, “GRAND OPENING! FREE COFFEE with any purchase”.

i, of course, was suckered in. i bought a few donuts and they offered me a choice between free coffee or free freshly squeezed orange juice. i opted for the free OJ and went on my way. orange juice is definitely not the drink to have after eating almost too-sweet donuts. no, the juice tasted sour and unpleasant. next time i must remember the coffee instead.

the donuts were actually pretty good. better than winchells, i’d say. i would say that they are a strong #2 only next to the delightfully light krispy kreme donuts. they were a little expensive though, 75 cents for a donut. i’m not sure if i’ll go again.

it’s funny because i expect donuts to be 60 cents or less and if it is any more (15 WHOLE CENTS!) then i get turned off. sheesh, what’s 15 cents?
