I wonder if you didn't have E-coli? Hope you get to feeling better.

Please make my cherry rootbeer a double?

Here's a double CRB, everyone has a pity party once in a while.

IT's trying to keep the guest list and length of your "bash" short.

Hope ya feel better!

DONE!

Karen,

Ice tea and a gas mask! Hope the wind pattern has changed for you!
DONE

Slickm

A Boatlaod!

DONE!

Pom,
I feel your pain, I had a severe bout of it a while back and cannot imagine being sick for as long as you have.

Take it easy one day at a time.

I have a 'friend' named John, too!

Me, me, me!

We had our first Krispy Kreme store open in the Valley a few years years back.

The wait to get a drive thru donut was pretty crazy, the lines were more than 30-45 minutes.

Then?

Now? Closed.

They were making money hand over fist....and I don't know what happened!

The Atkins craze drove all the krispy kreme's out of business up here.

Krispy Creme was a victim of slightly overexhuberant franchising.........

About 2 years ago they started imploding on themselves. Some of the franchises were making money, but not enough of them.

We would drive by and see the hot donut sign flashing when the kids were pre-teens and we would walk in and they would give you a whole hot donut to sample...it would melt in your mouth.

**RICHARD** · 06-01-2010, 07:46 PM

Wow,

it's a great product, in moderation....I guess sometimes big isn't always better?

**Catherinedana** · 06-02-2010, 07:12 AM

Doughnuts give me heartburn

But I'd like a chocolate chip macadamia nut cookie instead. . .very large, very soft. MMMMmmmm and a cup of coffee.

Today is termite warfare day!

There used to be this bakery across the street from my house that made the best donuts! I miss them. Stoopid Dunkin' Donuts went and drove them out of business.

All the donut shops/chains are hard to find, now they are mom and pop shops.

I always preferred Dunkin Donuts to Krispy Kreme. For some reason KK always tasted a little undercooked to me. DD has great coffee at a reasonable price, and their blueberry muffins are to die for. Sometimes I buy a dozen and just wrap them individually and put them in the freezer, altho they are much better fresh.
