The Doughneuring Challenge or #FS17doughneuring

[Judd]

Slogged through the rain today to District Donuts on 8th St SE. I ordered a Dulce de Leche donut. I flipped the doughnut over and to my great surprise, it had a map to a sunken gold laden Spanish galleon. Oh what great fortune, I thought! But then the horrible thought came to my mind that if I used this doughnut as a treasure map that I would not get to enjoy it’s stuffed sweet leche deliciousness. So, treasure map be damned, I gobbled up all that yummy filled doughnut goodness.

Oh, I feel a bit ill and sad that you went to those sorry packaged donettes. Sorry points have been awarded to you. I am, however, happy to see that you do understand and appreciate some truly awesome doughnuts available around the Freezing Saddles territory. e

Stopped by Astro Donuts on the way to work. They are known for their maple bacon but picked up a pineapple and a German black forest instead to share. The pineapple was a bit sweet and the black forest wasn’t as decadent as expected. A rare off day but more reasons to go back to try their other flavors and see if there is a treasure map hidden inside!

Not sure if a non-donut establishment counts but I happened to be at a happy hour at Smoke & Barrel and saw they had sweet potato donuts. Like a good FS rider I couldn’t not order them in the name of science. They tasted a bit like the munchkins at Dunkin Donuts with a bit of a sweet potato aftertaste. Maybe it was the beer or the praline-pecan drizzle but they were pretty tasty!

However, the following sweet treats will be given consideration for points if the rider submits a compelling description and is able to sway the judges:

Chocolate Croissant

Attempt to sway the very wise, incredibly intelligent and devastatingly beautiful judge:

I ate a Chocolate Croissant (and a sticky bun) at Best Buns in Shirlington for Hump Day Coffee Club today. Despite being a bakery, Best Buns has totally blown it by not offering sweet, tasty doughnuts. Undaunted, I showed them a picture of Kate and demanded, “Bring me a doughnut as magnificent as this woman!” The cashier shrugged and suggested a chocolate croissant. “FOOL!” I screamed. I informed the cashier that if Helen of Troy was the face that launched a thousand ships that Kate’s face could launch like a million ships all laden with sweet sugary doughnut goodness, adding “Also, I’ll go ahead and take that chocolate croissant.”

No ground hogs over here, would a muskrat do? Also supposedly the best doughnuts in Frankfurt (and there’s not much competition) are at Tasty Donut and one has opened not too far from me on Eschersheimer Landstaße. I rode by today, but did not stop.

Muskrats or marmots, even those evil Bavarian Martins! Bonus points for a foreign critter doughnut. Get pedaling! e

Girl’s Weekend in the mountains of Georgia. We met a decade ago when we all lived in Geneva, Switzerland. Have since spread out around the world, but we try to get together once or twice a year.
Do they know me?
