Daddy's Home by Tony Rubino and Gary Markstein for August 30, 2011

Have you ever had a Krispy Kreme Doughnut? What’s your favorite Krispy Kreme?

There’s a KK shop on my way home from work. They light up the red neon on their sign when the donuts are coming off the line HOT! OH MAN, a HOT KK is a little piece of heaven!

I’m not a KK or donut person.

Krispy Kreme Doughnut = mucus bomb

Krispy Kreme makes me believe in purgatory.

“Wouldn’t it be oddif there really was a Godand he looked down on earthand saw what we’ve done to HerWouldn’t it be justif He pulled the plug on us,and took away the sun?”— Adrian Belew, Men In Helicopters

There was Krispy Kreme here way before Dunkin’ Donuts. Can remember them as a treat when I was a kid. Dad loved them. My faves are lemon filled and chocolate covered, cream filled.

So, if there is a heaven, with Krispy Kremes Doughnuts, I wonder what kind of donuts they have in the ‘Ironic Punishment Division’ in hell? D’oh!

My mother insists there’s no such thing, but I find Krispy Kremes to be too sweet.

My favorite Kripsy Kreme Doughnut? Easy, the main doughnut: Plain old glazed!

Cinnamon. They don’t exist here anymore.

But, the local shops are better, anyway.

I prefer Dunkin’ Donuts. And they were in my city long before KK. As a matter of fact, the KK that did open here, closed down a year later.
