I think they are nasty! Way too sweet.

Sorry.

Heaven on Earth for me might be the train ride from Oslo, Norway to Bergen.

That makes the most incredible donuts! My favorites were raised sugar (not glazed) and his cinnamon rolls.

If I ever brought them for post soccer game snacks when my children were little, I always had to bring extras because the parents frequently had one too.

the beagles are just being beagles, which means they are in a constant state of "stonedness"

Except I'd substitute with Lab or Collie puppies.

Oh, and add popcorn and fruit for the munchies I get from using any
cannabis.

Same here if you ever head down under.
Unfortunately, we are in a long period of Covid lockdown right now. Can’t travel or have visitors probably until December.
