Good afternoon, everyone! I hope everyone is having a great day in spite of this nasty weather we are having. I am having a wonderful day because I have just discovered that there is a Dunkin Donuts in Siler City! YES. You heard me correctly. They make them there every morning at the Hess gas station, and it is so wonderful. When you walk in the gas station, it is warm and light and clean and full of the wonderful smell of fresh dough and sugar and coffee. I was a little upset at first that I am just now finding out about this. I mean, why has no one told me? Anyway, it is now my mission to let everyone know that there is a Dunkin Donuts in Siler City and you can go there and get some of the best, freshest doughnuts that you will ever have in your life. I bought a dozen of the Valentine’s doughnuts, but just know that I will be going back for some of the doughnut holes and giant muffins that I saw. And to everyone who did not tell me about this: you should be ashamed of yourself. Thank goodness that Mama had surgery, because one of her friends brought her some doughnuts and informed me of Dunkin Donuts’ presence in our itty-bitty town!
Pink Hearts filled with Boston Creme-we had these for dessert after lunch
Chocolate filled with brownie-for later
After we got home from our doughnut run, the Charlie and I finished up our Valentines for storytime tomorrow. I found this excellent site through Pinterest where you can print out Valentines cards that have a great Bible verse on them. Isn’t God’s love the greatest love of all? What a great opportunity to share his love with our friends! Here’s the site:

We just printed out the cards she offers, cut them out and glued them on some scrapbook paper, signed Charlie and Maddie’s names on the back, and tied them onto little bags of Sweethearts. It turned out so cute and we hardly spend any money.

They turned out really cute
We also made some cards for Jason. The kids did some painting. I tried to get their handprints on the cards, but they just ended up as abstract art!
Have a great Valentine’s Day, everyone!
Bring me one of those pink doughnuts!
Alvin said something about the donuts at the Hess station a couple of months ago. The lady working in there told him they bake them there, but he didn’t believe her.
They really do. They bake every day from 4-9 am. Can you believe that? They are really great doughnuts.
Alvin said it wasn’t him. It must’ve been Mama, but either way its great that ya’ll have access to fresh donuts (even if they aren’t Krispy Kreme =-))
