National Donut Day-June 3, 2011

Yes, we are part of a Health Care system that wants you to be healthy. As a matter of disclaimer I think that you can enjoy these treats in moderation. With that being said let's enjoy this national holiday!

National Donut Day is the first Friday of June every year. The event was originally created by the Salvation Army in 1938 to honor the brave women who served donuts to soldiers during WWI. Many donut shops offer free donuts on National Doughnut Day. There are two donut stores in the Denver metro area offering free donuts today. They are LaMars Donuts and Krispy Kreme. At LaMars you can choose to make a donation to the Colorado Make- a- Wish Foundation.

Everyone has their favorite donut so I polled our HP Staff to find out which donut would come out on top! And the winner in the HP office is a Chocolate glazed donut! Nicole prefers hers from Krispy Kreme and Caleb likes his with long sprinkles. 2nd place is a French crueler by our data ladies. Sprinkles was popular with our volunteer coordinator also! The great "Bear" of our office enjoys Old Fashion Buttermilk Donuts. Other honorable mentions were the ever popular Krispy Kreme glazed, a bear claw and a twisty. My favorite is a blueberry cake donut.

Remember those brave women today and enjoy a sweet treat. But don't forget to take a long walk too!
