Last time I shared our visits to Heitzman Bakery and Nord’s Bakery, both in Louisville. Today’s blog post is about where the donuts went and who ate them! Here’s where you get a little glimpse into my world outside of visiting donut shops. I’m an artist and most often work with balloons. I work with…
Week #38, Heitzman Bakery and Nord’s Bakery, Louisville, KY Part 1
(This is part one of Week #38’s donut adventure. Next time I’ll share the eating of the donuts…) Still in Louisville and armed with another donut tip from a local, John and I headed to Heitzman Bakery. When we pulled into the parking lot, we noticed a sign that said, “STILL OPEN.” Did that mean…
Week #37, Plehn’s Bakery, Louisville, KY
While working in Louisville, Kentucky, John and I were interviewed by the Courier-Journal newspaper for an article related to our work (more on that another time). The photographer covering the story, Bill Luster, suggested we visit Plehn’s Bakery for donuts. Plehn’s Bakery is located in St. Matthews, a charming area full of locally owned businesses….
Week #36, William’s Bakery, Clarksville, IN
This week’s donut adventure took me to Indiana. Still working in Louisville, Kentucky but wanting to venture out of the city a bit, John and I went for a short drive to Clarksville, Indiana to visit the William’s Bakery. Our friend Pam in Louisville suggested the William’s Bakery. She had never been there but had…
Week #35, Krispy Kreme Mobile Dipping Station
This week’s donut adventure was completely unplanned, a total surprise. And what a great surprise it was! I have been working in Louisville, Kentucky. While out of town, I often try to find a race in which to participate. At a running store in the area, I found out about a race being held at…
Week #34, Community Bakery, Little Rock, AR
The second installment in my Little Rock, Arkansas trip is a visit to the Community Bakery. I heard of this bakery from a gal working at the hotel where we stayed. She said they had the best donuts in town, even better than Krispy Kreme. Folks in Little Rock seem to compare all donuts to…
Week #33, Shipley’s Donuts, Little Rock Arkansas
I had never heard of Shipley’s Donuts until work took me to Little Rock, Arkansas. The old timers in town suggested Shipley’s. One fella said, “Everyone talks and talks about that darned Krispy Kreme but you can’t beat Shipley’s.” That’s all that needed to be said…I was off in search of Shipley’s. Shipley’s has been…
Week #32, Winchell’s, Wheat Ridge, CO
While I don’t often visit one of the BIG donut chains, I have had Winchell’s on my list from the beginning. It seemed important to visit the “time to make the donuts” establishment, however there isn’t one in the Kansas City area so I had to visit one while away from home. While in Colorado,…
Week #31, Pikes Peak Summit House, elevation 14,110 ft.
Tucked way in the back of my head, somewhere in the childhood memories folder, is a vague recollection of riding the Pikes Peak Cog Railway and having a donut at the summit. When I found myself nearby, it seemed like a good opportunity to find out if the donuts were any good or not and…
Week #30, Thomas James Donuts
Last week while driving through Kansas City, Kansas, my hubby John noticed a van emblazoned with a fun logo advertising donuts in a strip mall parking lot. He went to check it out, but was a bit confused because the name on the actual donut shop didn’t match the name on the van. It still…
