Donuts, Kindness and Philanthropy
A co-worker has listened to me talking about the unique donut shop in Portland, Voodoo Donuts, that sells among other things bacon donuts. So when she found out there was was a new donut shop shop in our area, Mill Creek, that has Bacon Maple Bars, Frost Donuts, she actually got up (we work swing) to be there at 6 am to get one of these coveted items for me.
The bacon and maple bar were good, but her kindness was what I will remember the longest, and her desire to bring me joy. She did. Thank you, Melissa.
While I am thinking on food and giving, you may have noticed the banner for the website Free Rice at the bottom of the page. If you would like an easy way to contribute to the hungry visit their site or visit the Hunger Site no charge to the user just click to earn free food donations.
