Doughnuts

When I was young we had a deep fryer you could make doughnuts in. (But we didn't make them very often.)

When I was about fourteen Tim Horton Doughnuts came to Moncton. (My favourite flavour back then was vanilla dip.) Back then they had eclairs and even bowties, which are like eclairs on speed!  They don't have them any more, and I have to admit they weren't very healthy.  But I wish I could find them again.

Last week I bought a dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts, just to be different, but I didn't care much for them.  They need more flour and less sugar. (My sister said they're like Froot Loops!) Makes me appreciate Tim Horton's.

Did you know that in three-dimensional geometry a doughnut shape is called a torus?  I have a theory that the universe is shaped like a doughnut! (Someone said it's shaped like a potato chip...)

I remember one Warner Brothers cartoon set in "the Town of Doughnut Center (What a hole!)"

That photo at the top is from the TV show Twin Peaks.
