I love candy. I love it. And I love chocolate, and cookies, and cake, and ice cream. But more than anything else, I love doughnuts. This page is dedicated to all the enablers I know, who fill my life with doughnuts and other sweet, gooey, goodies.

Bad news

This is horrible. I'm deeply saddened. I am, frankly, speechless.

Bribery?

I have my last class of the semester tonight, and my professor has said she'll bring us doughnuts. Actually, that's almost inaccurate. She said she'd bring us HOT KRISPY KREME doughnuts. I can't believe I was so careless. Anyway, she's bringing doughnuts.

Just because she wants to, she assures us. It has nothing to do with us having to fill out our course evaluations. Nothing.

Well, this doughnuts maniac will give her all high scores if she brings one, just one, chocolate frosted with sprinkles. I can't even remember what the class was about, but I love doughnuts.

Cake for Breakfast Part 4

This is something of a recurring post on my blog. I like to tell the world when I eat junk food for breakfast. Especially cake.

Now, usually when I have cake for breakfast, it's because we've had a coworker's birthday and someone has to eat the leftover cake. And usually when that occurs, we have a cinnamon cream cake from across the street. These cakes are meant for breakfast. I almost feel healthy eating them for breakfast.

But not today. Oh no. We went all out for someone's birthday this time. We got a Dairy Queen cake. Now, we have a small office. Only 9 of us total. And 3 were missing yesterday. But for some inexplicable reason, we got a gigantic ice cream cake - must have been 12" by 15" or something ridiculous like that. And we did all we could to put a serious dent in it yesterday, to little avail.

So I had ice cream cake for breakfast! It was delicious, with little oreo chunks and blue frosting on top. I'm freezing now, and have a space heater about 3 inches from my feet, but it was worth it.

Check back tomorrow for TWO DAYS IN A ROW.

IHOD

I've been thinking. I'm going to give IHOP a run for its money. I'm going to open the first of what is sure to be a sweeping, multinational chain of eating establishments.

The International House of Doughnuts.

Because here's the thing. Doughnuts are GOOD. No matter which cultural or ethnic traditions they derive from. I went to a Mexican restaurant on Sunday and had their churros - which are described as Mexican doughnuts. Absolutely delicious. I also used to go to this Chinese buffet (where I vaguely remember standing on a chair and singing Total Eclipse of the Heart, strangely, but I digress) when I was a kid. I spent a majority of time at the buffet next to the Chinese doughnuts. Also delicious. The French? I'm sure they have some doughnuts that are TRES bien. Just some research needed, but I think I can make it work.

So awesome

There's nothing I love more than combining my sugar habit with my political leanings.

Post-Easter Post

http://www.bewarethecheese.com/chocobunny.htm

I chose the eye. Mmmmmm. I believe I'm a refined candy connoisseur.

On another note, I went and had a Dairy Queen blizzard yesterday. I chose the blizzard of the month because then they give you two punches on your "Blizzard of the Month Free-quency" card. Two more and I get a free blizzard! Anyway, the blizzard of the month was Kit Kat. I love Kit Kats, and I love crunchy things in my ice cream, but it was not so good. Don't try the Kit Kat blizzard.

DO try the Publix brand Buckeye ice cream. It's limited edition. Go quick! Stop reading this stupid blog about doughnuts! Go to Publix! It's peanut butter ice cream with fudge swirls and buckeyes (chocolate-covered peanut butter sugary balls of goodness). Delicious.

I suppose it was a special NCAA championship thing, since the Ohio State Buckeyes played. I was planning to throw my support behind the Buckeyes, because my friend (you know who you are) said she'd make homemade buckeyes. I asked my Florida friends what they could offer me for my support, but they only had stuff like "friendship" or "sincere appreciation." Sorry, kids, but I'm not buying it.

Anyway, the homemade buckeyes never arrived, so I played Switzerland during the game.

My wife got me the Buckeye ice cream as an afterthought, and it was well worth the wait. So go try it.

Happy Easter

My most sincere apologies for failing to post this earlier.

http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/03/30/chocolate.jesus.reut/

I just spoke to a friend, and he pointed out to me that "all the gay men in Manhattan want to eat the chocolate Jesus's special parts." I believe he's right.

Anyway, here's to the second best candy holiday of the year (next to Halloween, of course, but unfortunately, this one involves church).
