As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps, I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with, My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow.

If you hadn't heard, today is National Donut Day! I don't know how I have lived as long as I have and have missed this sacred day. Although, I am generally a fan of healthful eating, I have never met a sale that I didn't like. And as everyone knows, free makes everything taste better!
Apparently national donut day is not simply an ode to fried pastries that are covered in glaze. It is a tribute to Salvation Army workers who distributed free donuts to soldiers during World War II. Apparently, the donut is a pastry with a purpose. Who knew?!
For those in Pittsburgh, you can honor the holiday at a number of local locations, including Giant Eagle. Giant Eagle is making ALL DONUTS just $2.99 a doz.! It's a cheap way to host a Saturday breakfast if you're having guests. Also, you can get a FREE DONUT with purchase of a hot or cold dispensed beverage. Check out this article for more local locations: National Donut Day Pittsburgh Style.
If you use Twitter, check out hashtags "#DoughnutDay or #DonutDay". Also, there's a website devoted to this holiday called, appropriately, "Donut Day USA".
Here's a video to tell you everything that you need to know about the holiday. ENJOY!!!
