I’ll admit it, this is an IT/ITSM blog, so why would I post something that could be analysed as bordering on obsessive behavior for the love of doughnuts?  Simple.  I own this domain and blog and I can write anything I want.  Another, not quite as simple, answer is that I like to keep my blog personal and for anyone that knows me, it’s a very well known fact that I absolutely love doughnuts and I can’t help but be overjoyed that there’s a national day (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Doughnut_Day) devoted to the fried tasty dough of delight that I’ll soon be enjoying.

Without further adieu, I’d like to present a nice little poem I wrote last night during my intoxicating dreams of jelly filled pastries:

’twas the night before National Doughnut Day and it was as quiet as can be, except for the bakers readying to make the tasty fried morsels for me. The flour and eggs and powdered sugar to mix, will soon delight hundreds and thousands wanting to get their morning breakfast fix.  Oh, how thankful I am to Hanson Gregory for his simple quick wit, because a doughnut without a hole isn’t the same…not one bit.  And if you live in England, Australia or Peru…well, it’s an American holiday I’m sorry to tell you.

Studied Electrical Engineering for two years before realizing biochemistry was more fun than differential equations, and so ultimately graduated with a Biology degree in 2006.
