French crullers.
Are you making donuts? Are they adorned or unabridged?

yep, making donuts, just plain right now, but I’m open to requests.
Anyone wanting one can just pop round and take one - I can always make more 😃

Making them seems like so much work, why not just go to Krispy Creme Donuts? They’ll give them to you all fresh and warm and yummy.

Just stay away from Krispy Kreme, those things are edible - just barely.

Well, I may make some enemies… but I must confess…
I hate donuts.
Except for the pre-packaged tiny cake ones with powdered sugar.
I hate all of the rest of them. I used to really wish I liked them when people would bring them to work, but…
Well, that’s my big confession for the night.

You can’t buy a doughnut that’s as good as homemade, I think. I looove doughnuts.

It’s three in the morning. Should I put on some more do(oug)nuts? Or should I sleep? Maybe I’ll put the goop in the frier and let someone else get them out.
oh, and **bwk** , don’t I get any praise for correct use of an apostrophe? Otherwise people might think I’ve been flirting. That would never do. :j
