Re: Disappearing manhole
So do I, but now after reading that I am reminded of (and saddened by) the loss of my favorite donut place, Happy Donuts. Happy Donuts was a great little donut place that had the best Apple Fritters, Cinnamon Rolls and other specialty donuts that you ever tasted. Sadly, the owner retired after 35 years (well, not for him...) and the store was sold to a Vietnamese couple about two years ago. At first, they made the donuts the same way as Happy (the previous owner) had for many years. All the customers kept coming and the business continued to thrive.
Then they decided to expand their business and add Vietnamese food to the menu, which they make in the same kitchen as the donuts. The donuts pick up the smells and tastes of the Vietnamese food, and now they taste awful. Vietnamese food may be good and I know a lot of people who like it. But Vietnamese food flavored donuts? Ewwwwwwww... No thank you.
