National Doughnut Day!

We came across this interesting and yummy tidbit of information and had to share, it's National Doughtnut Day! What that means is you can through out all of your being good preparing for summer and kick off June right!

Think we're kidding? We found an interesting history to this holiday. National Doughnut Day was established in 1938 by the Chicago Salvation Army to raise much-needed funds during the Great Depression, and to honor the work of World War I Salvation Army volunteers who prepared doughnuts and other foods for thousands of soldiers.

Doughnuts might not be as popular in Los Angeles as they are in other parts of the U.S., but we do have quite a few amazing options. A LAist writer recently ventured to Wichell's for the first time, and of course there are some very good rankings by other writers on their favorites. Oh what kind should we get? Hmmm, a glossary of types found here might help.

For fun, why not send a Happy National Doughnut Day greeting card (seriously).
