A box of donuts

Several people have probably heard me crave a box of donuts. Not just donuts, but specifically, I have been longing to go to a donut store and pick out a dozen donuts. I don't know how it got into my head, but one day before winter break, I just suddenly remembered how much I enjoyed waking up on Saturday mornings and going to the donut store with my dad. Of course, he would always let me choose whatever donuts I wanted. I would always choose the ones I liked first, and then he would choose the chocolate ones for my brother (after making sure that I agreed with his choices), and then he would choose some neutral donuts that everyone could enjoy.

My favorite donut now is probably a long twisty one with chocolate glazing on it. But when I was young, I would always choose one of those cake donuts with white frosting and sprinkles. And then I would choose a twisty one with sugar on top. Now, I hate cake donuts because I think they are too heavy. I am making myself very hungry just writing this blog.

Well, now there is no reason for me to buy a box of donuts. I have worked very hard to avoid even eating a single donut for the past few years. It was a particularly difficult feat when Crossroads served free, unlimited donuts from King Pin. But over break, I realized that what I want isn't just a donut - it's the freedom to choose TWELVE! donuts. I kind of want that feeling of choosing things that people will enjoy, and ideally, people would say to me "you have excellent donut selection" afterwards. That is why I wanted to buy a box of donuts.

But the opportunity to buy donuts never arose during winter break. Which is a shame, because I really wanted to try Lucky Donuts and Peacock Donuts again. I didn't want some fancy donut that would be overglazed and pumped with preservatives. I just wanted cheap, normal donuts.

Well, I will be buying a box of donuts in a week! How exciting. It will be SUPERBOWL SUNDAY!!! And I am extremely excited for it. I was like "OMG CAN I BRING DONUTS" and Caroline might make her delicious homemade pizza. This is combining two things I wanted to do: buy a box of donuts and have a Superbowl Party! I have wanted to attend/host a Superbowl Party for many years. But TMV is not a very sporty group. I always kind of wished that I would date someone who was into sports and would share all their sports knowledge with me. And I would throw annual Superbowl parties complete with alcohol and chips and dip and pigs in a blanket and delicious finger foods. Yum...
