Sure, these are not the traditional faschnauts that one can get for faschnaut day, however they are some really tasty donuts from Market Basket. I popped over there this after noon so that we could have them for dessert because Ash Wednesday is tomorrow. Most years Allison has gotten donuts ahead of time and made it so that the kids can decorate them with frosting and more. This year we were a bit off our game so I went and got a selection of donuts from Market Basket because I knew that they made some really big ones. Some year we are going to have to actually find real faschnauts, though. I wonder if anywhere around here makes them.
For special donut Friday I picked up some Halloween donuts that looked like mummies. Andy loved it! I’ve been being a lot better about the extras but I went for a donut myself.
It was a big day for getting things done. I got a new blower/vacuum for leaves. I got the back yard cleaned up so that we could have a backyard movie night for Andy and he friend Bella. He was so excited to be able to have a friend over. We watched Hocus Pocus and it wasn’t until bedtime that we found out that Andy did not want to watch that movie. He watched it, though and got through the night. We talked to him and asked him to make sure that he tells us what he would rather watch next time around.
