Sugar Rush

For our team meeting this morning, the boss brought in a box of Krispy Kreme Dough Nuts,1 which was rather good of him.

Had he thought it through however, he would have remembered that there are only three of us here at the moment, including him. So to buy a half dozen and then fall to the sucker punch of being offered a further half dozen for a single pound didn't make as much sense as he might have thought.

Krispy Kremes are an unabashed sugar delivery system, avoiding any and all of the remaining major non-carbohydrate food groups beyond that. I had one with my coffee this morning, and spent several hours unable to blink. I have had another, and more coffee. Lots more coffee and I haven't finished with coffee today, yet.

I shall be sleeping on the ceiling tonight.

1I am prepared to use the proprietary name for these things, but I refuse to compromise over the spelling of the sweetmeat itself. So there.

Krispy Kreme doughnuts are very tasty indeed. Sadly, or perhaps fortunately, there are very few places around these parts where you can buy them.

I think 'fortunate' is the word, Bin. People like thee and me should not be exposed to the buggers too easily!

Unfortunately they are moving in bigtime into the neighbourhood. There are stores appearing at stations; and there is one just round the corner from Holborn Underground...

The only thing likely to be more fattening, would be a deep-fried and frosted sugar cube, but man, they're tasty.

And our friend Sandra is part of the marketing exercise.

IT you have a particular yearning for a deep fried frosted sugar cube, then you could probably get one in Glasgow.
