Krispy Kreme

I stopped at the Shell station at Waters and Florida to get some gas. As I got out of my truck, I smelled Krispy Kreme. 2 blocks away Krispy Kreme was making donuts. Hot damn!

Except not really.

The machinery is working but they are not making hot glaze donuts yet. Apparentlyas aprt of bringing hot ones to Florida Avenue they closed their factory on Lake Avenue and are behind on cake donut orders that they ship to stores. The hot glazed will begin being made anywhere from Friday to 2 weeks from today.

I guess the closure of the Lake Ave facility must be related to all of the money troubles Krispy Kreme is having. The employees from that location are now working at the Florida Avenue store and the management staff are on Kennedy Blvd. ( I wonder if it is that building behind the Kennedy Blvd. store). So everything is not sweet at Krispy Kreme
.
Well, Krispy Kreme's overall bad luck or bad managment is good for us cause it brought back hot ones to Florida Avenue.

We made a fence in our backyard out of burglar bars...left them rusty to give it that "vintage" look.
