I gave in to the KRISPY KREME temptation

Yep on my way home today...i thought i would check out the lines at KK....they werent too long...so i hopped in the line for the drivethrough....I waited around 20 mins....
Ive had KK before...in the USA...but thats almost 10 years ago now *g*....they are really yummy....but i dont know why people would wait 4 hours....thats CRAZY *g*

I got the sampler pack....A dozen original glazed and a dozen variety....my fav would definately be the original glazed and the 'good ole' cinnamon and sugar donut....not a huge fan of the cream filled ones....
Ive been again now...wont need to go again for another 10 years LOL......
