What kind of Donut are You?

You Are a Boston Creme Donut

You have a tough exterior. No one wants to mess with you.
But on the inside, you're a total pushover and completely soft.
You're a traditionalist, and you don't change easily.
You're likely to eat the same doughnut every morning, and pout if it's sold out.

Some fun before the hot hot weekend--90s in Marin, 100+ inland!  My results shouldn't be much of a surprise as Dunkin' Donuts is what I was weaned on!

Shaken, Not Stirred I love to drink Martinis, Two at the very most After three I'm under the table, After four I'm under my host. Dorothy Parker Two thousand and six marks the 200th anniversary of the cocktail—or at least the first recorded mention of the word. And while the tradition of the American cocktail is long, and varied you can seek out Mr. Boston for details. There’s really only one clear choice and it is quintessentially American─the Martini. (Yes that’s an intentional capital.) The elixir of choice for M.F.K. Fisher, E.B. White, Kingsley Amis and H. L. Mencken who deemed it "the only American invention as perfect as a sonnet." As Lowell Edmunds discusses in his scholarly deconstruction of the cocktail, Martini, Straight Up: The Classic American Cocktail, the word "Martini" evokes not only a cocktail, but also an image and an idea. The symbolic potency of the Martini depends first on its uniquely inverted triangular cocktail glass in which it is traditionally, and secondly on its ingredients. This is where the quality of the gin or the vodka matters most. And to many purists it also rides on the name: if someone identifies a given drink as a Martini, then, for symbolic purposes, it is a Martini. Purists when calling for a martini are expecting the gin-based mix. There is no other cocktail that is more sophisticated, urban, adult and American than the Martini.

Vacation Time Sunday Morning, Late August by Deborah Cummins from Beyond the Reach. © BkMk Press She's never sat at a steamy café near Pont Neuf and fed a lover a perfect tarte tatin, never slept naked in a rented room on Place de la Madeleine, shutters open to the rain. Already, a thousand times before this morning, she's wished to be someplace else if only a little further down the beach. In this small town on the Cape, even clouds drag away their important business. Flimsy chairs face seaward, as if in wait for something glorious, drastic. An ocean away from Boulevard St. Germain, the water shimmers like unspooled foil. Some other life lies elsewhere: hers, unclaimed. But why, now, as her husband crosses the yard and with customary gestures plucks— oh, how banal—a common daisy, does her blood, running its old familiar route, deliver such bounty to her heart?
