SUBLIME DOUGHNUTS

I won't make any of the obvious "Sublime-tastic" quips that everyone makes about how freaking great the doughnuts are - I promise.

But it's difficult - because "sublime" seems to encompass the experience at this DONUT (that's how the marquee is spelled) shop in Tech Plaza on 10th.

From a selection of doughnuts like chocolate beignet, orange-tangerine filled, and their popular Big A cream filled (coated w/ chocolate) I chose a bacon and maple icing, and a fresh strawberries and cream.

They were subl ... Oh, wait. I wasn't going to use that word. How about "fantastic" or "wonderful" or the most used descriptive word in Smiley Eats, TASTY!

Random Foodstuffs 2

About a year ago I was cleaning up my picture folders and posted some one-shot photos that I'd held on to, hoping to dedicate a post to them.

It's that time again - spring cleaning, if you will ... here's a few one-shots that didn't get their own post, but so totally deserve to be shared!


A few months ago while visiting my family in south Georgia, I got to collect eggs from my sister's hen-house. Ain't nothing like fresh-from-the-bird eggs for breakfast!



Sausage patties ... nothing more needs to be said.




I tried my hand at baking with something simple - lemon butter cookies - turned out better than I'd expected (but I'll still visit the bakery for cookies!)




Every time I visit my family, my Grandma shows me how much she loves me with a pecan pie - made with chopped pecans and sugar-cane syrup, you can't beat an Ophelia pecan pie!

Lunch?

What do you think? Should lunch be what I'm having today, a turkey club and chips from an in-house deli, eaten at your desk or should you go out for lunch, and get a break from the office?

Historically, it works out to about 80% go out and 20% stay in for me.

But today I think I'm pretty much forced to enjoy my turkey club and work through lunch ... save, typing this post. :)
