Winter Mix and Donuts

Tonight we're scheduled for some bad winter weather... a mix of freezing rain, ice, and snow. That's about the worst kind of stuff you can get up here in Connecticut. I would honestly rather have ten inches of snow than freezing rain on the roads. Seriously!

Luckily, tomorrow I can work from home. Thank goodness for modern technology (and reasonable supervisors).

If you've driven north on the Berlin Turnpike recently, you may have noticed that Krispy Kreme has closed. Marty and I had dinner at Bertucci's (right next door) on Monday, and I was astounded to see that the grail light, I mean, the donut light, was completely dark. In fact, the whole place was as dark as it could be. I was shocked! I knew the company was having financial trouble, but the place seemed so popular!

Today I learned (thanks to Anti-Linear Brain) that the Krispy Kreme just closed a week ago. Now I don't know where I'll find southern-style donuts around here. What a tragedy!

It amazes me that a company can take a product THAT GOOD and not be successful with it. We are only 30 minutes from the Krispy Kreme headquarters in Winston-Salem and can't even get Hot Now donuts anymore. They closed our store too.
