Hi Nina- Count me in!!!! I grew up on Shipley's donuts here in Houston. My receptionist's mother worked at Shipley's and we were often treated to fresh donuts.  I may pick one up tomorrow.

Kathy Streib hi Kathy... I've heard of Shipley's donuts but can't say I've ever had one.

Nina I can see a good cup of coffee being a good fit to accompany a donut.  BUT there is something not very appetizing about eating a donut while indulging in drinking a  mimosas, bloody mary, or beer

Nina Hollander, Broker

George Souto hi George... I'm inclined to agree with you... but somehow this donut festival sells out even with the combination.

Hmm, I can't even remember the last time that I had a donut, but I am happy that they don't really tempt me too much, haha.

Brian England I had a lovely oreo cookie donut this morning during my meetup in Charlotte with Ed Silva and Debe Maxwell. (Wouldn't mind having another on right now!)

Nina Hollander, Broker  Man does not live by bread alone - He would much rather have a glazed donut, and thanks to you, everyone in your area knows just where to get one - Great local post

Hannah Williams thanks, Hannah. I might need to remember that quote for next year! I wouldn't mind living by donuts.
