#71 - Get Donuts From 25 Different Donut Shops Update





Oh Krispy Kreme...you are not my favorite donuts by far, but you are still donuts and therefore you are still good :p Krispy Kreme is basically where I go when I'm really craving donuts. Sadly, there really aren't many donut shops around me at all. I have to make it a special trip to get donuts. Unless I want Krispy Kreme. We have one of those close to my mom's house. To me, Krispy Kreme tastes totally different from any other donut shop. But same premise...fried dough with sugar :p What I will give them is they have EXCELLENT frozen coffee!




Me and my mom were out shopping today so we picked up some donuts on the way home...two of those are hers and the other four are mine XD I LOVE their chocolate covered glazed crullers. Now those I will say they do a damn good job with. My mom took one of those and the other two are mine :p The other donut that was hers is the powdered jelly. That's my moms favorite donut wherever she goes. I also got a regular glazed because they were hot! And a raspberry filled glazed. Like I really need these calories :/

#71 Get Donuts From 25 Different Donut Shops Update


I am a certified donut-a-holic and when this number for the list came to my mind, I got all excited :p I wanted to make the goal "get donuts from 100 different donut shops" but I had to limit myself to 25 :p Though once we hit 25, we may have to raise the number. Donuts truly may be my favorite food! But it's so hard to find a good bakery! I'm not a huge fan of the big chains. Though truly I don't think a bad donut exists. Krispy Kreme, Dunkin Donuts, Tim Hortons...all chains I've been to that have donuts that are OK, but they're not blow you away amazing. It's these local bakeries that have the amazing donuts. Though I'm sure you'll see all of those chains appearing on the list too :p

Rocko's is a place I found when googling donut shops on the northshore. It's about 20 minutes away from my apartment, but today I was in need of some "feel good food" so I decided to make the drive. They sell donuts and chicken fingers! I got the chicken fingers too and those weren't so good. I didn't even finish my meal. But the donuts...oh they were good! And I can totally see myself driving 20 minutes again to get their donuts!

I got three glazed donuts and an apple fritter. I would've gotten a better variety but I'm guessing you have to get there early if you want a variety. Not much left aside from powdered donuts and cake donuts which aren't bad but they're not my favorites. The glazed donuts are PERFECT! Soft and fluffy with a delicious glaze on the outside and OMG the apple fritters. *cries* Let's just say it's a good thing they're 20 minutes away!! I don't need to be eating those every day and I would be if they were closer :p They're HUGE and just...SO GOOD!

So #1 on the list sets the bar high for the next 24! Excited to see what deliciousness lies ahead :p
