Good morning Frank. I don't even remember the last time I had a donut, they are just not good for me, will have to do without the treat.

I am a big donut fan! Joe Petrowsky you might be about to eat a donut hole to celebrate next year. Yes, there is such a thing. When we were children that is the part we were given for two reasons: they are portion control and they are less messy to eat.
Thank you for sharing the history of the day. I had wondered who came up with the idea. Now I will be looking for someone who served donuts during that time.
