I got home last night, packed the family into the car and we headed into the city to visit the newly opened Krispy Kreme, in York St, Sydney CBD.

We got there about 7pm and there was a queue of about 100 people waiting to get their donuts.

20 minutes later, we were the happy holders of a Krispy Kreme Sampler - 1 Dozen Orginal Glazed & 1 Dozen mixed. And the queue behind us was as big, if not bigger, than when we joined it!

We had a happy trip home, eating just one donut each. We had to save some for a late night snack, and then maybe one or two for breakfast.

My kids went to school happy this morning!! Its amazing what a bit of sugar & fat can do....
