They Still Taste Great !

It isn't very often I get to snack on a donut now that we live out in the sticks. Today we had visitors and they brought a box of Tim Horton's finest to snack on while we had a coffee.

When we lived in Regina, I used to get the donuts quite often at work. Some visitor would bring in either some Robin's or Tim Horton's usually on a daily basis. Heck, after a while you do get a bit tired of eating them, but then you'd go on days off. The next week when you were back on shift a new batch would make it's way to the consoles to munch away on.

After we moved here, we didn't have the luxury of visitors bringing along treats. Sure we stopped a few times when we were in the city and brought some home. The only problem was then we had to eat the whole box and normally they got stale before we got through eating them. For me, one or maybe two in a row is about all I can eat. The sugar and what not gets to be a bit much. After awhile we just didn't bother stopping any longer.

So today when the visitors popped in with the distinctive box I immediately put the coffee pot on and got the table ready. I sure was not disappointed as the TH's tasted just great with a 'cup of mud'. As we all munched away on our donuts, we got up to date with the recent happenings as well.

A nice visit was had and now we are 'good to go' with the Tim Horton's for the next while. Of course we would never turn down a nice fresh donut if anyone ever wants to bring some by. I can always find room for 'one more' of life's little pleasures :)
