apple fritters to die for
Well, it has come to this, I need to write about my newest obsession. THE BEST damn Apple Fritter ever! This huge fritter made me forget about politics, all of the unease and hate and, and… omg. I mean, the world is still turning and all this shit is still hitting the fan down here, but my man brought me an apple fritter from Donut Corral in Yuma Az. and I entered into a realm called la la land.
I thought that Goldsboro Bakery had the best apple fritter I ever tasted but, alas, I was wrong. I know taste is a matter of choice and the other one was, and is still really good, but la la land can only be entered from this exquisite fritter bought at Donut Corral. It will be a sad day for me when I have to travel back home to Canada, but maybe I can get the recipe. hmmmm….
Having type 2 diabetes is a drawback for sure but some things are just worth the risk. If I died while in the throws of making love with Tom Selleck, I’d call that a ‘happy ending’ and yes that is another of those bastardized sayings. . This fritter is kinda like that, or maybe my values have been compromised by my time spent here in the States. The political landscape here is in such turmoil and it’s very unsettling.
It’s not looking good and I feel a need to be home. The only holdback is selling my place AND I’m not gonna lie… it’s -42 at home and they’re having a record cold spell. The temps here yesterday was 74 F and I was cold, like wth? I’ve turned into a sissy, well not completely, I do my pool exercise thing every morning for an hour. BUT, even though the outdoor pool is heated, it’s not heated high enough… brrrrrrrr
These are first-world problems I know or maybe it’s just an old-person thing and I need to get a life. Then along came that huge delicious apple fritter and now life is just better with it in it. You see, it’s the little things in our lives that bring us joy and happiness, and a reason for living. Well I just threw that last one in, my writing keeps me engaged in life … well okay, there is also a man in my life as well : ) : ) : )
Now where was I? Hmmmm… I love it here, what’s not to love? Sitting out on my patio writing is impossible in the wintertime at home. Here I am every morning, after the pool, sipping my coffee and doing what I love best. Our summers are getting iffier for weather at home, but here it is sunny pretty much every day. The political climate will eventually chase me home. When the shit hits the fan I want to be safe with my family.
I’m afraid my forebodings will eventually come to pass but, Democracy is worth fighting for. The people here are already starting to take a stand and I’m an optimist. The world is on high alert and nothing should be taken for granted, maybe this is why that apple fritter is such a godsend to me. Everything falls away, and la la land takes over, and omg… kill me now!
We need more of these apple fritters and we need them now!!! Let’s distribute them worldwide and we’ll just ‘fritter’ away all this bullshit and get on with loving our lives and the people in it…
the end
