Seward gets a New Neighbor

November 5, 2011...one year ago today we were busy getting ready for our house warming party. If you went, man that as a fun time. If you didn't, sorry. I think the weather was exactly the same, 50s sunny and very fall like. Well instead of party prep we celebrated another great milestone, the opening of The Donut Cooperative in Seward.

Pip has been following along patiently in the twittersphere awaiting this great day. I never knew he liked donuts so much. The Donut Coop is located in the same place as the Clicquot Club and Cake Eater. We hope this lasts longer than those two and can compete with the adored Birchwood Cafe.

At 11, when we were finally ready to walk over, FB posted terrible news, " Donut Coop is out of donuts." Pip was deflated. Almost but not quite like someone had punched him in the gut. I saved the day with this suggestion, "why don't you call them?"

Of course we tried the peanut butter and jelly donut. Then the cinnamon sugar. Unfortunately, we were underwhelmed. The donuts taste different than expected. This might prove to be a good thing but not yet. We will go back to keep trying the wacky variety and will keep you posted on their progress towards deliciousness.

PS. No coupon for this, just checking out the neighborhood delights.
