Fat Tuesday

I have a dive of donut shop that is part of my morning commute. Come to think of it I don't even know the name of the place. The outside is drab looking, the neon open sign is missing an "O" stucco looks like gray paper mache after years of rain pour I guess. The parking lot is filled mostly with hard ass European tradesmen, you should see the fists on these fellas they are big enough to knock out an elephant. There is also your standard landscaping trucks and its tanned group of individuals. This place is the blue collar type of haven. I guess thats why the owners don't want to change the esthetics of the place. Thats their identity why change now. Inside you can tell smoking was going hard in here pre 2006, everything from the bankets to the ceiling tiles has a yellow hue to it. This is your old school donut shop with the long counter and those rotating stools. The prices look pre 1989 a lrg coffee and a donut is just $1.37 with tax. Standard fare is found here this aint no Tims or Country style. They do have a hot table of chinese food for lunch where I was told you get the typical Manchu Walk type of stuff for $3.97. I probably won't ever try their lunch as it has the same appeal as the $4.99 lunch buffet at the strip club a few blocks down. Behind the counter you will be served by a pleasant chinese lady. She greets everyone with the same "morning sir, how are you sir" its repetitive and kinda annoying (thats the dickhead in me coming out) when your standing in line but when your turn is up you are happy to see her and have that brief 20 sec convo. She makes even the hardest looking russian plumber crack a smile. She knows you by face and gets started on your order without asking. I got everyone at the office started on this apple fritter donut. Four donuts and a coffee for $3.23!! Nothing special in it just good donut, they hate when I bring it because everyone says they are on weight watch tip..please!! I see that smirk of happiness when you walk up to your desk and you see that brown paper bag soaked in grease. Honestly why would you pass up on fried dough that makes your shit so sharp and hard that theres blood in the bowl, increase the chance of constipation and stick to our intestines like spackle.

From the looks at the donut pictured above I think theres about 350 calories in it. Sitting and reading emails burns about 10 calories. Throw facebook into the mix bumps it up to 12 calories taking into account brain activity, respiration, and circulation due to your facebook creeping.

I am craving a pepperoni ponzo and a riceball for lunch..
