There is  the BEST donut shop in Canada up my street (Tim Horton's is about 50 feet from my house). I love it..so convenient, when the kids don't like my cooking, I say "here's $10, go buy yourself a sandwich , soup and a donut!". It's always soooooooo busy though, so by the time you reach the front of the line, that craving for a donut has disappeared!

I wish...there is an amazing local donut shop in town, but it's on the other side of downtown from where we live. We USED to live about 2 blocks away from there...it's probably best that we don't anymore, it's delicious!

I work near this place, where people get donuts far too often for the office:

Does that help your craving at all?

I've been lucky enough to eat at some of the finest restaurants in the U.S. and Freeport measures up, pastry-wise, to most of them.  YUM!  It's one of the few things I miss about living in Sacramento.

I lived in Folsom, Citrus Heights, and East Sac (behind Sutter Memorial) over a 7 year period.  I worked downtown, across from the Capitol, for several years.

I thought I was the only person who think Krispy Kreme is nasty. There's so much glaze and the donut is as puffy as people say.

I dated a guy whose family owned a donut shop when I was in college. I was so sick of donuts then because I see them all the time. But now I occasionally get a sugar donut.

Beau, if you offer me something better than a Krispy Kreme I don't think I could physically take that much pleasure!  We love Krispy Kreme where I live--even though we have a drive a bit to get to one.
