Why Did We Bother Ah?

The girlfriend enthusiastically declared, "Let's have doughnuts!" I was like......eiooowwwwww.....yucks. The others rolled their eyes. Doughnuts are sickeningly sweet! You feel ill eating them.

This girlfriend makes wayyyy better desserts than the sugar-laden rubbish sold outside. She made an apple crumble that was already waiting for us at home along with tea and oatmeal raisin cookies. Still, on our way back, we stopped at a Krispy Kreme.

The shop was.......colorful. Between 4 of us + 1 little girl, we shared 1 doughnut- a 'choc iced'. Muahahahahha. As you can see, we're not fond of doughnuts at all. Okay, maybe just someONE likes it. She had half. Her little bub wasn't at all interested in the eating. She liked the colors of the trays on display. After she took a bite, she declared it too sweet and spat it out. It was pure hilarity. You have the mother who has a crazily sweet tooth, and her little girl who doesn't like sweet things. She likes pure lemon juice, and eats limes as fruits. Woah.

19°C today. It was a dreary rainy Sunday. But it didn't dampen my spirits. The friends picked me up and drove us out. I'm glad to have made the brunch date at Tiger Mottle. The coffee was fantabulous. Thick, rich brew. Their 'Maple Mottle' is really interesting, but I didn't fancy fancy it. Gimme the usual flat white anytime. Then, there's the wonderful hospitality of homemade dessert, tea, super cute dogs and cats. There's the unbeatable warmth of human contact. I need my friends. I love my day out.
