Worth the wait....and the calories!!!

My friend Emily and I have a love for a little place called Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. You might have heard of it....maybe not. :) When we lived together back in Virginia, this was our place. We would often find ourselves there at 3am after a big night on the town...at midnight after a night chilling at home...after a date for a little girl talk time...or grabbing "the boys" so they could come along with. We have many fond memories of the car trips to and from that Krispy Kreme store.

I was very sad to find that when I moved back to AZ that the Krispy Kreme stores were all closing. Last week Kris and I were out driving when I saw that the store on Superstition Springs Blvd was opening back up...I was so excited!! I immediately texted Emily and told her that we had to be there. Little did we know how big of a deal this opening was (picture the winding lines at Disneyland, that is how the line was out of the door). We decided to go through the drive thru and an hour later we got these beauties...
Pure heaven.

Ahhh! You gotta love Krispy Kremes. Do you know they have a 5k race in NC where you have to run 1.5 miles to the donuts eat one dozen and run back 1.5 miles! My kind of race!

I really don't think I would ever stand in line for an hour for a piece of fried dough, but to each his own. The smell just makes me sick. (pregnantcy issues) I'm just glad that you are eating stuff that is bad for you, it proves you're not perfect. Love you.

Back in the single days, I drove with some friends in a blizzard from Salt Lake City to Provo at 11pm at night to get a donut from Krispy Kreme!

Looking back, probably not the smartest thing I've ever done, but the donuts were yummy (and I'm not even really into donuts) and the time with friends was FUN!

I think my roommate also got a speeding ticket on the way home. Pretty expensive donuts considering the gas, and ticket. Oh well, happy memories.
