Why is every other blog post I write about food? Because I'm an American that's why! Alright, now that my transient moment of nationalism is over, I can get to the real news. ITS NATIONAL DOUGHNUT DAY!

We're all familiar with the nationally recognized  holidays like Fourth of July, Halloween, Christmas, etc.. but what we forget about are the red headed step children holidays, Arbor Day, Flag Day, Presidents day and the like.

I am here to put an end to this neglect, and to begin a new era, and it begins with Doughnut Day.
