EVERY GRANDMOTHER'S DREAM


When I was in high school my cheerleading squad would get up early on Saturday morning and go to Krispy Kreme to get dozens and dozens of hot glazed donuts. We would then head to subdivisions to go door to door selling them. The money we raised would pay for cheerleading camp or new uniforms.
Usually people don't like it when you wake them up early on a Saturday morning but we soon discovered that if you were offering to sell them a box of (still warm) Krispy Kreme glazed donuts they were delighted to part with a little cash.
If you haven't had one - hot out of the oven - you probably can't understand this but if you have stood in a Krispy Kreme store/bakery waiting for one and experienced that wonderful taste, you will cherish them for life.
Now to think of 3 of my grandchildren baking Krispy Kremes, each holding a box of fresh hot donuts while the 4th one gives them the thumbs up, cheering them on is like...a wonderful dream. Don't you just love those hats?
