The Gift of Doughnuts + Giveaway

Uncategorized July 9, 2015


So my hubs’ birthday was a couple of weeks ago but we are still kind of celebrating haha. See he was gone on his actual birthday, and intermittently since, and we never had a proper celebration; we have just been having mini celebrations all month long, which is kinda fun. His birthday gift was a pint of his all-time favorite ice cream from San Francisco that I suffered through two hours of traffic to bring home and hide in the freezer. Unfortunately our freezer is tiny and he of course had this sudden urge to take inventory of all our freezer meats one day and discovered it early haha, so that is when this all started.

This time around I decided he needed to blow out some candles. And he is not a cake person, so I went with an even better option: Krispy Kreme.

Guys I can’t even explain how much I love Krispy Kreme, I will just assume you all feel the same and understand me. Their birthday is coming up too – tomorrow actually (7/10)! And they are celebrating by doing a deal where you can buy one dozen doughnuts and get a dozen Original Glazed for 78 cents because it is their 78th birthday. So make sure you take advantage of that! You could bring them to work or a party, or dress them up as little gifts to give away like I did below. I will be back in tomorrow to pick up a couple dozen for my hubby’s squadron.

You can see in my photos the Birthday Cake Batter and Brownie Batter doughnuts that they came out with this month, those are yum-o. They also have the Birthday Cake Batter Chiller in some stores. Will you guys be in Krispy Kreme this Friday??

Make sure you enter the giveaway below! You must be at least 18 years old and live in the US. Prize includes:

-$25 Krispy Kreme gift card
-Krispy Kreme oven mitt and spatula (ARV $25)

Good luck!

    This is so cute! I love the look of sprinkled donuts always, but they aren't my favorite treat. Which is probably for the best. I really like visiting little donut shops when we travel though. Oddly enough, cake donuts are becoming one of my favorite things! 🙂 Happy belated b-day to your hubby! XO -Alexandra
