Don't sweat it. . .you're not missing a thing.

I'm sorry folks but Brian's been huffin too many paint fumes or spent too much time in sunny So. Cal. Krispy Kreme "doughnuts" are one of the nastiest things you can put in your mouth. Alas, my cooking hero Alton Brown was arrested over his love of Krispy Kreme doughnut holes. http://www.ericwagoner.com/weblog/archives/001303.html So I guess you're in good company. I've never understood people's desire for those too airy and sugary pieces of fried dough.

If Krispy Kreme doughnuts were a bike they'd be one of the super light carbon fiber Treks. They're both too light and have too much air in them and have nothing but sickening bright glare on the outside. They also both come apart and crush way too easily, nothing classic there. Now Spudnut doughnuts are the Jack Taylor of confectionary creation, solid, predictable, and quite predictable. On the up side for you KK lovers is that I will never make the line longer at your dealers corner. I do think that the love so people show for KK is only over shadowed by crack or heroin addiction. I think they need to classify KK as schedule B. ciao, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives Too much sun Santa Barbara, California

PS: Brian if you ever need a place to dry out just give me a call, I'm here for ya man.
