We Didn't Forget to Celebrate

 As all faithful readers know,
Saturday was "Donut Day" here.
22 years ago, hubby and I shared our first date at an Italian bakery in Latham, NY.

Since then, we have celebrated each anniversary in February with a donut or two.

Sometimes, I wish that first date had been a bit healthier ... but we have made adjustments as necessary.

Benny's Donuts - Corvallis, OR

Groovy Gus Mini Donuts - Bowling Green, KY

Hubby was actually working out of town on Friday and Saturday.
It seems that the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisvills has slated "Donut Day" each year as one of their show dates (I guess they are not faithful readers).

I did join him at the show on Saturday afternoon with a lunch salad in hand.
He wrapped up his responsibilities around 6 pm and we headed for home.
We arrived home around 8 pm ready to clean up and relax.

Not to miss the celebration,
I prepared the "Donuts."

Due to the lateness of the evening
and some health needs,
the donuts got REALLY healthy this year.


This year, they were apple ring donuts drizzled with almond butter.
Hubby's had a drizzle of chocolate syrup too.
A couple of the "donuts" even had some unsweetened coconut flake sprinkles!

There is always a way to remember the special events.
Life may get busy.
Diets may change.
Don't forget to celebrate the ones you love!
