Saturday Six #373

Friday was National Doughnut Day. I hope you managed to get yours; I’m told that Krispy Kreme and Dunkin’ Donuts were both handing out free doughnuts in honor of the occasion.

So, with such an important national event still fresh on everyone’s mind, I figured this week’s edition of the Saturday Six should focus on doughnuts as well.

One other important note: commenting is a little different this week. Check out this post for details about Livefyre.

Here are this week’s “Saturday Six” questions. Either answer the questions in a comment here, or put the answers in an entry on your blog… But don’t forget to leave a link to your blog so that everyone else can visit! Permission is not granted to copy the questions to message boards for the purpose of having members answer and play along there. Enjoy!

1. Which doughnut shop do you prefer: Dunkin’ Donuts, Krispy Kreme, or a different store? I like both, but Krispy Kreme did not survive in the local area. So Dunkin' Donuts wins.

2. Do you prefer your doughnuts hot, room temperature or cool? Um, I guess room temp. I haven't had them any other temp.

3. Take the quiz: What Donut Are You? Oh, I don't need to answer that, I'm absolutely a Bavarian creme doughnut. But let's see what the quiz thinks...

What Donut Are You?

  1. What goes best with a donut?
  2. What's better? Dunkin Donuts or Krispy Kreme?
  3. If you were a donut, what would you be filled with?
  4. When you get up in the morning, you're most likely to say "Time to make the ..."
  5. How many donuts do you eat in one sitting? (be honest!)
  6. (My answer:)

    You Are a Boston Creme Donut

    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 you pout if it's sold out.

How cool is THAT?! The quiz actually got it right! I love it - that is so funny!

4. How do you usually spell it: doughnut or donut? Oh, no, no, no - I'm a purist. One does not much the English language. It is doughnut.

5. Do you prefer cake-style or glazed? Oh, I guess glazed. Well, I'm not sure. What's cake-style? I don't get doughnuts enough to know. I never buy them, either.

6. Do you prefer frosted, creme-filled or plain? Ah, this question I can answer: creme-filled with chocolate on top. Vanilla stuff on top would be even better, but I have never seen it...

I can do without doughnuts most of the time. However, if I do get a craving for one, I always prefer the creme-filled variety at one of two somewhat local bakeries. The one place usually has choice of powdered or sugared. Hmm... I think sugared might win out. But either way, they are sliced along the side and filled, err, I mean STUFFED with decadent white cream. Dammit, now I'm thinking about doughnuts. Be right back.... haha

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really...

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s...

Shocking!

I always open my day at work by starting up my various programs that I'll bounce back and forth between throughout the insanity that is my normal workday. And they are always in the same order: Internet Outlook Microsoft Excel Microsoft Word The timekeeping program, GenPro, is always running. This is not me being unbelievably anal or just a little OCD, this is logic. I know excatly where everything is. It's just good organisational skills. When I open Outlook it is almost entirely for the e-mail. Yes, I do know how to use all of Outlook (well, 80% of it, any way, but since I use my belovèd Franklin Covey Time Management system (the physical book, not the electronic solution), I only use Outlook for e-mail. What is so shocking, you may ask? Be patient, I'm getting to that. I open the Internet and the default page is Wikipedia, in English. I happen to love that site and skim over whatever interesting things it may have, such as: Today's Featured Article The word thou was...
