Kurt’s Blog: A Donut Love Affair a Year in the Making

Nearly one year ago…I was lucky enough to go to the Rose Bowl…and the day before the game, I went to Universal Studios Hollywood…where they sold the greatest donut I had ever had.

The Homer Simpson donut…

It was the size of my head…and it was delicious. I had half of it a 12:01 NYE…and then the other half at 3:45 am when the bus left for the Rose Bowl Parade. I loved it…and I’ve been missing it ever since….it’s so good.

To be honest…I haven’t eaten many donuts this year, because the only one I want is this Homer Simpson donut. Nothing else compared.

And then…

AND THEN…

Welcome Hurts Donuts…and what…do…they…have..

Hello beautiful. Yes…I bought 5 of them…my wife wanted one…I wanted at least two…and apparently, my 6 year old son can put away two of them.

So good…

And even better…I have a “Then & Now” pic.
