"Quack Daddy"

"Quack Daddy!"

LOL, that's not one of the kids asking dad to act like a duck.  Nope, it's the name of a donut shop in Pendleton where Spen lives and where we love to visit.

At its website I checked out their hours, but it says, "Donut Worry, Be Happy".

"Donut Worry"  that was funny, too.  So was the artwork on their wall, "Donut make you want to dance.  Donut make you want to smile."

Sitting in Annie's living room, she and Spen are discussing whether or not they've ever visited Quack Daddy Donuts and how many times and how recently and what kind of donuts they ate.

Quack Daddy's specializes in made to order, fast, and hot donuts.  You can pick the icing, and toppings, and order as many as you want.  Popular are combos of maple icing, bacon,  strawberry icing, and Cinnamon Swirl cereal.

With Conversation Hearts, Fruity Pebbles, and Sea Salt on the menu, you can see how it tickles not only the senses but the funny bone, too.

Spen:  Have you been to Quack Daddy's recently?
Annie:  In the last year?  Yes.

Spen:  I love their Maple Bacon!
Me:  Ew!
Annie:  No, it's good!
Me:  You've had 'em?  Yuk.

Spen:  I had a Chocolate Covered Bacon Donut!  It was really good !  I love 'em.

And I'm contemplating all that's wrong with that donut, excluding my personal aversion to that combination -- calories, caffeine, fat content.

Annie:  Did you have to ask for forgiveness?  Ha, ha, ha.
Spen:  No.  I ordered more!

Can't argue with a bacon lover.  But you can give him a cup of coffee.  Coffee always accompanies a donut, right?  They weren't actually eating donuts, but they were imbibing coffee.  From her Keurig cups Spen chose hazelnut.

Annie:  How's that coffee?  Any good?
Spen:  It's coffee!  Coffee's always good!

And we sat there dreaming of our favorite donuts that should've accompanied our coffee,
"Quack, Daddy!"
