Donuts, in Hi-Def

Sunday brunch is really one of best times in the week.

I was out all day yesterday with friends, and woke up at 11am. Yikes. In fact, I would have slept longer, but Baby Bird (my poodle) started sitting on my head, subtly indicating it was time for her morning walk. Afterwards, I got a call from my not-lazy-like-me fiance asking me what I wanted for brunch. And I thought... donuts! I haven't had donuts in months, but lately I've really been craving those cute, sweet, unhealthy foods like donuts, cupcakes, cake....

So, I thought I'd share pictures of these deep fried goodies... (pictures are lo-cal after all). First up, is the chocolate sprinkle donut. All the sprinkles are on one side, as if they'd been pulled over by some magnetic force. While this donut might be the most photogenic, it's packs the least punch on taste. And the crunchiness of the sprinkles is a little much.


Next is french cruller. It's so light and airy inside--- full of big holes. I really loved the texture.


Third, classic glazed. Can't go wrong with this one.


And the lot. There was also a blueberry cake and jelly donut that I tried.


So all in all I had about three donuts this morning. Thought it'd be fun to take a quick break from makeup posts and put my camera to new use =P.  So, thoughts on donuts? Favorite kind? Krispy Kreme or Dunkin? (I'm usually a Dunkin kind of gal myself...)

Finally, I have a picture of the other, healthier half of brunch, in case you've undergone calorie overload after seeing enormous donuts on screen: some veggies getting ready for an omelette!


Love, Dovey.

  5. YUM!!! There's been a big movement towards fancy and/or organic donuts here in SF. Chocolate old fashion always wins in my book!

    I am a Dunkin Donuts kind of girl. Not a fan of the airy krispy kreme - I just wish there was a Dunkin Donuts here in California. It would make my Jersey Born husband very happy!
