I’ve got a new love in my life, and I’m not ashamed of it at all. It all started a few weeks ago because I’ve been frequenting Starbucks quite a bit lately, but for their iced tea, not coffee (shaken, lightly sweetened venti black tea, to be exact). Today Shawrk and I went to Starbucks for some beverage goodness when I decided to get a couple of their “Old Fashion” donuts. Great googaly moogaly they are tasty! And I don’t even like sweets and candies very much!
Taking a bite of that donut is like a sweet taste explosion in my mouth that hits all the right spots. It’s a whole sensory experience… the aroma of the cake-like body, the texture of the sugary topping, it’s all there in a 4-inch circle of pastry joy.
Sadly this means that I will over-indulge in this appetizing confection for a week or two and then get sick of them. Then after another month or two I’ll just partake in one every now and again… but for now, Oh! the heavenly flavor!
