Initial Kroon Day Report

The 10:00 AM Report:

I have stopped at Gramma Damma Donuts already and purchased my loot. The number one indicator that this is an excellent donut shop: the girl behind the counter & I were the only two under the age of 70 in the store - everyone was sitting around with brown mugs of coffee and red baskets of donuts. Classic.

Reports came in over the weekend: Leslie was planning a stop at Top Pot donuts in Seattle. Way to go Leslie! We'd hate for that place to go un-visited on Kroon Day. Aunt Karyl was headed to a local Olympia donut shop (or Safeway at a minimum) we knew we could count on her! The Larry Kroons were planning a donut banquet....they do know how to celebrate Kroon Day. Keeton was cancelling two tutoring appointments to be able to fully relish in the Kroon Day celebrations......

My plans have shaped up more fully: Mel & I are going to dinner at Marzinni's - although no steak will be consumed I can drink a bottle of Henry Wienhart's Root beer there and nothing is more Kroon like than that (anyone at my wedding knows that!).

Hope everyone else is getting their Kroon Day off to a great start!

I had 2 thoughts when I read this:

- oh, I forgot to join Kroon day!

then,
I'm jealous of Leslie! They sell Top Pot donuts at Starbucks and they are my FAVORITE!! I wish I could go to a whole store of those donuts.

It isn't too late to celebrate - you can pass the tradition on to Isabelle, too!
