Scouting out some doughnuts!

In January, I mentioned on Facebook that my only "goal" for the year was to finally eat a Tim Horton's donut. (Which I still have not done yet.) It resulted in a long conversation with some friends about other places to eat donuts, and the idea of a photography project. (Thanks Sandy!)


The other day I headed down to Seattle just to get out of town and run some errands, and I made a stop at Top Pot Doughnuts' downtown location. I bought four different donuts and have definitely eaten them all! The donut photo I've put here is of the Double Trouble. Which I presume is because it's a chocolate donut with a chocolate glaze on top of it. While I really do like donuts, I can't say I understand what makes a donut "extra special". Other than perhaps deprivation from other food that tastes good. (Referencing the cannery here.)


I still enjoyed them though, and will likely be getting more in the future!

Isn't it fun...

When I found out how much my federal tax return would be this year, I was so excited! I had all these plans, trips I could take and things I could finally buy!


Of course, it never works that way. I need new tires for my car, I have weddings to go to, so on and so forth. 


I guess this is what being a responsible adult is about. I'm still going to buy some yarn, though!
