Sprinkled Doughnuts











A little known fact about me: I adore sprinkled doughnuts. They're absolutely awful for me, for so many reasons, least of which is the fact that my trousers don't seem to fit quite right the next day. But, I love 'em!

The goodies from the weekend took the form of cookie making, baking, movie watching, walk taking, and heaps of relax-ating! I wasn't able to make it down to see my blogger buddies on Sunday, due to yucky weather, but it was fun chatting it up on the phone with each of them. What did you guys do this weekend? By the way, we have exactly ten days before Christmas!

These photos are gorgeous! I have a horrible doughnut weakness as well, and can rarely resist the opportunity to eat one.

Well, I share your adoration. Sprinkled donuts remind me of growing up and watching The Smurfs on Saturday mornings;) These photos are beautiful.

One of my favorite spots is Block Island and they have a spot at the boat dock where they make some amazing doughnuts which are always warm & worth the bike ride to and from. Your post made me drool!

those photos are absolutely lovely. for some reason i've never been a big fan of doughnuts. actually, i usually just scrape off the frosting and sprinkles and leave the doughnut :)

Everything looks so delicious, Julia! Sounds like you had a lovely weekend. Mine was more hectic and less relaxing, but still fun nonetheless :) Can not believe there are only 10 days left . . .

yummy images!
I too love sprinkle donuts!!!! They are my favorite and I have to stay away from the cafe at breakfast until atleast 9am, then the only two sprinkle donuts they put out will be gone and I won't be tempted!!

Julie @ Belle Maison said...

oh my! these photos look good enough to eat! i have a major sweet tooth and i share your love for doughnuts...although they put me into a sluggish trance for the entire day - sometimes it's worth it!

Unknown said...

shyeah. thanks for the reminder, miss! (like i could forget!)

i too love doughnuts. i dont descriminate between sprinkled and non-sprinkled.. they all go down easily. (a bit too easily, i think!)

glad you had a good weekend. :)

Wow gorgeous!! This weekend was all about catching up. I made a dent, but still have much to do for the holidays. I feel like I'm scrambling this year.

Aren't donuts the best. It was a Saturday morning tradition when we were kids. My daughter is a huge sprinkle fan! ;)

Gorgeous photos by the way.

Mrs.French said...

carolina @ patagonia gifts said...

I love those photos, Julia. Thanks for your sweet comments! You'll surely know when I receive your lovely journal, darling! I'm so excited! xoxo

Robin said...

Donuts are good, but cupcakes are dee-vine nd that meringue one in the pics looks especially fab.

After three hectic months of work I had one of the best weekends ever, spent with friends, some nice long walks through the city, a little Christmas shopping, some parties and finally put my tree up (as you saw when you stopped by - thanks!). Now I desperately need to finish my shopping though!

I love this post and adore sprinkled donuts. If only they adored me back! I would love a box of these warm donuts to show up at my door from the sprinkled donut fairy but have a feeling I may have to go out looking for them! Oh, you have tempted me terribly!
