krazy for krispy kreme

before finn went to bed last night,
he asked if we could have a special morning.
i asked what he meant by special.
he responded "can we go to krispy kreme." *laugh*

donuts are something we rarely eat in our home,
but since it had been a long time,
i said 'ok' even though i knew c would give me a little grief for it.

i just had to remind him that finn actually loves watching the
donut-making process more than eating the donuts.
if i told finn we were just going to go through the drive-thru,
he wouldn't want to go.

so before we went on our field trip and to get our morning sugar buzz,
i got an early morning run in, c fed them a *real* breakfast,
then i headed to the bakery.

as soon as we walked through the door,
the boys ran straight to the window to watch the donut making process.

they were fascinated with it all,
from the rotating wheel that drops the donuts into the hot grease,
 to the conveyor belt that takes them through the sugar waterfall.

it was a good 15 minutes before i could coerce them over to come
over to the case and select a ready-to-eat donuts.
even with all their choices (sprinkles, chocolate, jelly filled)
they both ended up with a simple glazed donut.
my favorite too.
