The kids have been dying to try the new Grinch doughnuts from Krispy Kreme. We tried our best earlier this week and the dumb store was completely sold out with an hour's wait to get fresh ones. KK isn't exactly close to our house so we went home, disappointed. However, today when Preston was driving to flight, there just happened to be a Krispy Kreme that they passed so the kids were able to get the long-awaited doughnuts. For them, it was a treat, well for Savannah at least . . . Preston's doughnut was missing the cookie dough filling so he was sad and wrote a long hilarious e-mail to their customer service department. For me, it was a reminder of Aunt Cherry and her love for us all.
Many years ago I took the kids furniture shopping at FLS (gasp, I know) and there was a doughnut stand out front. Preston was begging for some fresh doughnuts but we kept brushing him off trying to finish our purchases. By the time we got back outside they had closed the stand and were gone. Aunt Cherry felt so bad so she gifted the kids with a big gift card to KK, which they have only used on special occasions. So today, this was a small reminder of her and how she loved us all so well. Maybe the grinch doughnut didn't have filling today, but it sure had love.
