just so he can buy me some krispy kreme donuts?

They look so nice and nowhere round here sells them.

Are they nice?
Anyone?

they aren't as nice as they look you know. And thats a lot of pollution for some sugar. Get some choccy instead from the local shop

Hmmm, I think maybe he will laugh if I suggest it. He has been taking the shed down all day.

No, not pregnant, I just love the look of those donuts. I wonder if you can order them online and have them delivered. I really want to try them.

yes, why not. It's one of those open-and-shut cases of "ruin the planet versus eating some doughnuts?" Easy!!

Just had some chocolate NMC, but the yearning for the krispy kreme is still there.

are you sure you're not pregnant? This sounds like a pregnancy obsession to me! I think YABU unless you are indeed incubating young which would upgrade you to YANBU

heheheheh. Let no man stand between a woman and her donuts is what I say

EllieG · 27/01/2008 18:46

I tried one and they really aren't that much cop. Just taste very fake and fatty to me - no different to a normal doughnut and considerably less nice than some.

Oh Ellie, don't say that!

Alambil · 27/01/2008 18:57

They are just as nice as normal donuts and four times as expensive!!

Must admit their apple n cinnamon ones are nice though, but would rather have a BBs muffin!

lunavix · 27/01/2008 18:58

lol will little tesco on northbrook street not still be open?

big tesco def will be

EllieG · 27/01/2008 19:00

I'm sorry, it's best to know. The memory of trying one after getting so excited and it being no different to an ordinary doughnut still hurts. I only wish someone could have told me and saved me that pain.
