I had an amazing National Donut Day. I had planned to make them at home but then opted for Dunkin Donuts and Krispy Kreme as I didn’t have all the ingredients at hand. Great post!
That sounds awesome! Two stops in one day? You’re better than me!
I had no idea that National Donut Day was even a thing 🙂 Something to look forward to next year 🙂
