The Daily Donut Year 2- Happy Fat Tuesday!
Fat Tuesday is the last day of Mardi Gras and since Lent begins on Ash Wednesday people like to clean out their kitchens of all the fatty foods they are giving up for Lent. Many people decide to give up items like butter, flour, sugar, etc. All the good stuff! And what can you make with all of the above items? You got it!
DONUTS!
In Poland, it's paczki, Germany calls them berliners, and In Austria they are krapfen, but they are all donuts to me!
I got my local paczkis from, believe it our not, the Walmart(www.www.walmart.com.com) at 409N Fruitland Blvd in Fruitland, MD 21826. This store only stocks paczkis for Fat Tuesday, but they make their own donuts all year round. Pretty good ones too! Give the bakery a call at 410-341-4803 to see what is fresh.
Hope you had a great Fat Tuesday!
EAT HAPPY!

The Daily Donut Year 2- Keithaccino's Birthday Week!
The official Keithaccino birthday is does not start until Tuesday the 10th around 4PM(I will have to double check with Mom on the time), but I was pleasantly surprised with my first 2! dozen Dunkin Donuts by Kelly Messick on Friday.
Bethany Beach has a new Dunkin Donut Shop at 33300 Coastal Hwy in Bethan Beach across from Sea Colony. I am always glad to see a new donut shop open up near by- you never know when a "donut emergency" may occur and it is good to have options! Stop by the new shop or call in your order at 302-539-1454. You can find your local Dunkin Donuts at http://www.dunkindonuts.com/.
Dunkin Donuts just announced plans to double the amount of "DD" locations in 2012! This is going to be a great year! I would like to announce at this time I am available for ribbon cuttings, cheerleading, and taste testing at any of these new locations. I will work for DONUTS!(check out the full story at this link:
My loving coworkers at BRF(http://www.bethanyresortfurnishings.com/) created this "Franken" Donut for me from the above Dunkin Donut selection. I dubbed this the "Perfect Donut" and could not bring myself to eat it right away as I usually do. I had to stare lovingly at this masterpiece for a while, then I took it home and shared with Melissa and Shelby.
You know it's going to be a great birthday with you have enough donuts to share with others!
EAT HAPPY!

The Daily Donut Year 2- Mom's Birthday June 13th
HAPPY
BIRTHDAY
MOM!!!
June 13th is the birthday of my Mother, Joyce Nichols. This is how she looked when we told her actual age! WOW! She loves to go to the Texas Roadhouse(http://www.texasroadhouse.com/) at 107 East Cedar Lane in Fruitland, Md because her favorite clown(don't your Moms have a favorite clown?), Sunshine(http://www.sunshinetheclown.org/) is there making balloon art, cracking jokes, painting faces, and basically spreading mirth and merriment! Good Times!!
Sunshine is an excellent balloon artist! She even has her own little air compressor strapped to her back! WOW!
Nathan got a balloon sword! Unfortunately, it burst in the parking lot. DARN!
Mel and Shel and our own"Sweet Caroline" being "TOO CUTE", as just comes naturally to them!
The kids all got snakes painted on their arms! Gnarly!
Mom's Birthday Cake!! If we had put the correct amount of candles on, the fire alarms and sprinklers would have gone off!
After several attempts, the candles were finally blown out!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM/GRANDMA!
You know I cannot celebrate a birthday without DONUTS! The above lovelies are from Bayville Bakery(302-436-2220) at 37238 Lighthouse Rd just west of Fenwick Island, DE. These yeast raised donuts are BIG and FLUFFY! Honey Glazed, Marble Frosted, Creme Filled, and that Boston Creme must have weighed 5 lbs! Just full of delicious Boston creme!
An Elephant Ear! This light crispy cinnamony treat brings back memories of Hooks Pastry Shop in the Old Salisbury Mall! Just one of many fresh baked goods available from the chefs at Bayville Bakery! Check them out on Facebook!
EAT HAPPY!

The Daily Donut Year 2- BRF Birthdays and Grandma Barbara's Visit
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKEY-D AND CAROLINE!
At BRF (http://www.bethanyresortfurnishings.com/), we love to celebrate birthdays! Singing, cakes, funny group cards, and DONUTS! What could be more fun, and it just makes the work day HAPPIER! The first week of June we celebrate the births of our go-to party girl, Sweet Caroline( see Donut Day 9) and our designer extrordinaire Mikey-D( see Donut Day7). This year I decided to make donut faces with some grteat donuts I found at(believe it or not) WALMART!
Caroline's Sweet Donut Face is constructed of three donut types all from the Walmart(http://www.walmart.com/) at 409 N Fruitland Blvd in Fruitland, MD(410-341-4803). The donuts are one of the few things at Walmart that are made in the good old USA, but that will be a subject of another blog so just enjoy! All of the above are fresh, fluffy, yeast raised donuts! The eyes are "pretty in pink" with sweet pink glaze, the delicate nose is a "cool" triangle donut with my favorite "sweet angel" creme inside, and last is the wide long-john smile with pink striped vanilla glaze and also filled with that de-lish-us angel creme! SWEEEEET!
Mikey-D's Monkey Donut Face is an all CHOCOLATE extravaganza! The eyes are honey-glazed chocolate cake donuts, the nose is another triangular(aren't they cool?!) shaped donut topped with chocolate frosting and filled with delicious angel creme, last is the long john smile with chocolate frosting and filled with Boston creme or as Shelby calls it, "pudding."
We had a special guest this week! Grandma Barbara came from Silver Spring to attend the awards ceremonies at Carter, Blaine-o, and Chloe's schools. Wednesday after school let out we all tried to beat the heat at Roaring Point on the Nanticoke River, I spent many Summers neear here as a kid at Waterview(also on the Nanticoke. Check out these cool pics!
Kayaking on the Nanticoke!
Coming back to shore- did someone bring DONUTS!

Grandma Barbara got to see her Nats' Number One Draft Pick -Bryce Harper, the 6 million dollar man, when his Suns played our local Delmarva Shorebirds!(http://www.delmarva.shorebirds.milb.com/)
Chloe and Shelby would rather ride the Merry-Go-Round!
Maple Bacon Ice Cream Sundae! Now that's what I'm talking about!
