Apparently June 4th is National Donut Day . How should we celebrate? Donuts or Fireworks or Better Yet -- BOTH !!!

I say we swarm Timmies head office and set off fireworks in their parking lot until they agree to bring back the Dutchie.
I guess I would probably eat a few Boston Creams and Double Chocolates while "protesting".
Hey... we could all bring a Double Double to fire!

I would be happy with a chocolate cream filled donut. Or a chocolate fudge filled donut with chocolate on top . Neither available from Timmies though .

So... on the topic of donuts...
What is the best donut you ever had.
There used to be a small independent donut shop in Byron(south west London) that for a short time made an apple fritter that was indented in the centre. The centre was filled with raspberry jam filling, and then the whole top of the donut was capped with chocolate. It was huge, delicious, and all the sugar you needed for the week!

Favourite Apple fritter comes from a bakery that still uses a wood burning oven . Huge pieces of apple in it - totally delicious.
Other was a chocolate fudge filled donut (Think chocolate pudding in the center ) with a chocolate coating as well . Wife and daughter always wanted me to share - nope not going to happen with that one . Apparently I have issues with sharing .

I had a look at Grandads donuts website - from what I can see the ghostbuster donut is one I would enjoy . Will have to stop by next time I am in the area.

Love Grandads menu! 1.) the Walnut Crunch and the Dutchie (can't believe that Timmies invented it and discontinued it) 2.) IT'S ALL DONUTS!!!
That looks like a place I need to visit the next time I'm in Hamilton.
