11/6/2024 0 Comments 361) The Results of Donut Decision Day 2024 - Bean's Best Bakery Blowout, Baby! The very official and totally serious Donut Decision Day 2024 is in the history books. Thanks to everyone who joined me, voted for their favorite donut shop, and shared out the stream so others could vote too! My main goal in hosting this event is in the belief that we, as humans, can all come together over a shared meal together. Whether that's a simple cup of coffee, a fabulous holiday dinner feast around a massive table, pizza night in front of the television watching a movie, Publix subs at the beach, and even a dozen donuts or so. I would call yesterday a success for the mere fact that we were together and shared a laugh. It's the simple things in life. I completed this exact same event four years ago in 2020, by myself and on my blog only at the time - so this was our first time live-streaming the event. And it won't be our last. We will reconvene again four years from now, and we will vote once again. In the meantime, we have a heck of a lot of other donut shops to visit, lots of sugar to wipe off our faces, and a lot of sticky fingers as well. Love you, Christine #dunkin #krispykreme #jacksonville P.S. If you haven't shared a moment of silliness and laughter with someone yet this week, I challenge you to meet a fellow human for coffee, smile, and laugh with each other. And while you're sipping your delicious beverage, maybe you could even deliberate on the very official and totally serious debates of our modern time... Do you prefer Publix or Winn Dixie? Would you choose Gate or WaWa? What about Coke vs. Pepsi? Do you put ketchup on your hot dog, or never in your life would you do such a shocking thing? Is it spelled doughnut or donut? And ultimately, the biggest question of all... Krispy Kreme or Dunkin? ___ 
  Let’s all come together over a cup of coffee and a donut or twelve. Join me in Jacksonville, Florida on this very historic November morning as we journey together to make our choice on Donut Decision Day 2024. Who will win this very important, life-changing, and monumental YouTube livestream poll? You decide… Krispy Kreme or Dunkin? Which bakery chain has the single best glazed donut in America in 2024? We will be ordering and tasting donuts from both bakeries together this morning to help us come to our conclusion. Make your choice in the LIVE poll below. You have from now until the end of the livestream to choose which donut is your favorite. Be sure to tell me which donut you voted for and why in the chat! I’d love to know. And if you have any other donut shops I need to try, feel free to drop me a comment. Plus, don’t forget to share out the stream so others can make their voices heard as well and choose their favorite donut shop! If you’re new to the channel, welcome to a community of dreamers. Either way, definitely be sure to say hello! Cheers. Love you, Christine P.S. Like. Share. Subscribe - and Dream.

Love you, Christine #dunkin #krispykreme #jacksonville ___ 8/23/2024 0 Comments 313) Peace, Love, & Little Donuts! My Review of the Location in Historic Downtown St. Augustine, Florida What's in a name, they ask? Well, maybe just about everything... I finally made it to this adorable little donut shop.  After many years and countless visits to St. Augustine, I can check another spot off my list of must-tries! The donuts are fabulous, by the way.  I had always been intrigued by the oh-so-very simple, yet very descriptive name of this small donut shop. And I've never met a carbohydrate I didn't like, so it was truly a match made in bakery heaven that I purchased breakfast here after our livestream ended on Wednesday.
This shop serves mini donuts, and I ordered a box of 'One Dozen Groovy' - with a total of six powdered sugar and six cinnamon sugar. You can pick whatever toppings you want from an abundance of choices, and they are all made-to-order fresh - each and every donut. This box is priced at $15.00, but keep in mind, there is a credit card transaction fee that is also charged, and I didn't know until after I paid via Apple Pay. Not complaining - every penny does make a difference - so I do like to quote prices and provide as much information for y'all as possible during all of my travels and adventures.  My dozen box of groovy goodness!
And then it happened. In one simple bite, I was immediately transported back into my childhood. My breakfast dreams at Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach in Walt Disney World, standing outside at the fried donut stand. A true breakfast of champions, before going on water slides all day long and swimming in the massive wave pool. Funny how that pool may have well been the size of the Atlantic Ocean to a small child. It's so silly because it's been so very many years since I've been to either one of those water parks, but with one little donut held in my hand, I can be transported back to those hot summer days of pure fun, laughter, and cinnamon sticky fingers.  Back in St. Augustine, after ordering my mini donuts, I went to browse through their merchandise for sale. They have some really fun tie dye shirts - that I may have to get in the future. Actually, I had the shirt in my hand until I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was coral, and it was calling to me.
When I got in my car, turned up the AC, savored that cold wind blowing straight in my face, and had a moment to look at my purchases, I couldn't help but think they had this hat done absolutely perfectly. For one, it was my favorite color in the whole world. And second, those three symbols on the hat really describe my YouTube Channel without really ever saying a word.  I dream of a world at peace with one another. I love each and every one of you. And even as we all have our struggles and trials and challenges and maybe even some real hard pain - we all keep going, one step at a time. And while we are on this adventure together, and the journey may be a long one, and it may be full of sweat and tears... It truly is my hope that we can come together over a cup of coffee, a sunrise or a sunset, and wish each other friendship and good cheer in this, our beautiful life. And when all else fails, it is my hope, and a dream of dreams, that there's nothing in this world that a good, freshly fried donut can't fix.

So - this adventure - I am soooo happy to bring to you! You guys - I have crossed the St. Johns River on the Auto Ferry more times than I could have ever counted. I LOVE this Jacksonville icon with all my heart. And today, I’m actually sharing it LIVE, with YOU! I hope you enjoy my trip across the beautiful and flowing St. Johns River, as viewed from inside the car, and from outside the car. Enjoy the sights and sounds - including the very loud boat horn. And while the pelicans may just be my favorite part of every trip across, please make sure to keep your eye open for dolphins, various birds, massive freight ships, Singleton’s Seafood Shack on the Mayport Village side, and the Sandollar Restaurant on the Fort George Island side of things. Our fare was $8.00 for a weekend trip. Fares are one way. There are bathrooms on both sides of the river, which come in useful, especially if you are far from home, or end up waiting for the ferry for a very long time. There are also picnic tables and a viewing platform/pavilion on either side of the river. And now, I even noticed an Amazon Locker on the Mayport side during this visit! The ferry runs seven days a week, and approximately every half hour. Have a fabulous voyage folks! Love ya’s! Christine P.S. You’ve gotta check out Island Donuts in Atlantic Beach, Florida! Did the donuts I shared with you look absolutely delicious?! Check it out next time you are in town. Cost is roughly $2.00 per donut and I believe, worth every penny!

 *Part of - Bean’s Coffee Shop Challenge - series It’s that time of year again, my friends. Love is in the air. Valentine’s Day is upon us. Whether you have a Valentine in your life or not, go ahead and celebrate. Be your own Valentine if you must. Love yourself as much as you love those around you… Or, at least love yourself as much as I love donuts.  And so with donuts in mind, if you haven’t been to the Mini Bar in Jax Beach, it’s time to seriously consider the following question: What else on Earth are you waiting for?      In my case, I guess it was the fires in Australia that finally led me to the land of the most magical and mini donuts. I know, I know. I live in Jax Beach. The Mini Bar is located in Jax Beach. I love donuts. I love coffee. How - How is it humanly possible that I never visited this establishment before now? Believe you me when I say that I had been wanting to go to The Mini Bar for quite some time. I had even popped my head in back in the past. It was on a busy day, and I had been next door at the Dollar Tree running errands. And curious about this amazing looking place, I glanced inside before popping back in my car. So I had seen, but I had not tasted. I never took a seat, and never ordered a coffee, and most importantly, never ordered the donuts, yet. I had just never got around to it, as they say. But when I saw the Facebook and Instagram posts telling me about an event at both The Mini Bar and Southern Swells to raise funds for the wildlife affected in the Australian fires, I knew it was finally time to officially check the place out. On Saturday, February 8th, both The Mini Bar and Southern Swells co-hosted the fundraiser, along with a variety of local vendors set up in the outdoor courtyard area surrounding the businesses. While all those koala bears seem so far away to me, it doesn’t mean seeing their burned hands hasn’t had me wondering what can I do to help. The images of all those homeless animals hurts my very soul. A huge animal lover in my heart, it crushes me to see our Earth’s defenseless creatures not being able to survive and thrive on their own, let alone their entire houses - their natural habitat - being utterly destroyed. And, if I can contribute even a tiny bit, each person doing their part makes a difference. So I knew I wanted to attend.        And I’m very glad I did. I love seeing all the local small businesses that attend these types of events. But mostly, I just enjoy checking out the atmosphere. Seeing new establishments and shops that I’ve never been to before. And of course, looking up at all the donuts in the sky. I really enjoy checking out how a variety of local small business owners such as jewelers and artists incorporate local coastal treasures into their designs and wares for sale. Local honey, local seashells and oyster shells, local sea glass, local clay molded into jewelry. We even have a local dog park here at the beach y’all! Sign up to become a member why don’t ya. And my favorite item of the day, locally poured soy candles. I purchased a very generously sized two-wick candle from Lumi Bean. Vegan, soy, and locally poured in Jax. I’ve been drawn to anything citrus scented lately; whether it’s been citrus candy, citrus all-natural household cleaning spray, or citrus body wash, etc... if it’s citrus, I’ve been wanting it. So I immediately grabbed the citrus candle, breathed in the refreshing and clean scent, and knew that’s what I wanted to purchase at the event. Candles were $18.00 or 2 for $30.00. I went with one of the 16 oz. large candles, and am quite excited about my purchase.                After checking out all the vendors in the courtyard, we then went inside The Mini Bar to finally purchase a box of their signature mini donuts.      ‘Treat Yo’self’ lit up on the wall, and donuts served out of an orange and white automobile, the vibe inside the Mini Bar is one of modernity, openness, clean, and fun. Coffees, teas, and local beer on top, the menu is broad and basic at the same time. It’s coffee and donuts… or donuts and beer… or… whatever you like. Either way - get the donuts. We purchased a small hot latte for myself, and hubby ordered the 16 oz. nitro cold brew.          And we also ordered a box of 16 mini donuts. They have boxes of 4, 8, 16, and 24 to choose from. We chose 8 of the classic cinnamon sugar donuts, 4 of the Boston creme, 2 espresso buttercream, and 2 bulls eye - which consisted of powdered sugar and a dollop of raspberry jelly on top. With my favorite of the day being the Boston creme and the cinnamon sugar… I know, that’s two favorites - not one favorite, but trust me, I couldn’t pick just one, I love them both equally.     Quite happy with this selection, I would so order this exact box all over again. However, there are so many flavors to choose from - that I’m sure I won’t be 100% completely satisfied until I try them all. I’d call this a good and solid “start” though - I’ll definitely be back. If you haven’t been to The Mini Bar, get yourself over there. You won’t be sorry. And I’m 100% sure of that. Treat Yo’Self. Look up and see all the love in the air... And all the donuts in the sky. Buy a box of fried goodness, and bring it with you to the beach. Walk barefoot in the sand, sip your latte, as you hold hands with your Valentine.~  ‘Love Is In The Air’ ~ 11x14x0.75 Acrylic On Canvas P.S. ~ Did you know?

 *Part of - Bean’s Coffee Shop Challenge - series Is it me, or does everyone debate EVERYTHING nowadays? We have: Flip or Flop Who wore it better? Kate vs. Meghan Netflix vs. Hulu Disney vs. Universal Coke vs. Pepsi What came first… the chicken or the egg? Who played the best James Bond ever? Jelly vs. Jam Is breakfast the most important meal of the day? Paleo vs. Keto Do plants have feelings? Blake or Miranda? N’SYNC v. NKOTB (wow, that’s a tough one).... Oh wait, I think I’m starting to date myself over here… Moving onwards… pay no attention to me sitting in front of a square box tv watching NKOTB. Wait, they are still really together! Yes, the list could go on forever… Because, guess what? Everyone does seem to debate everything nowadays. Ha, would who have thought? We even debate on Twitter if an award show was totally awesome? Or was it horrible and the worst award show that ever aired on network television? In fact, now we debate not only who the host of the award show should or should not be, but if there should be a host at all? Huh? And we have all this before even mentioning politics. The dreaded word. Lest we all forget the upcoming presidential debates ahead of us this year - yes, an official presidential election year. It looms ahead of us, taunting us all. Ahhhmmm… whether we like it or not, it’s all coming, and it’s all coming for us. Yes, we are alive during a very interesting time… Or wait, is this time period actually interesting? Maybe we’re not even really alive? Maybe we live in a simulation. You’ve heard about that one, right? Or maybe we’re living and breathing inside an alternative universe - right now. And yep, you can easily fall into a YouTube rabbit hole on that one… Do we live in a UNIverse or do we live in a MULTIverse? THAT - is the question. Or do I have too much time on my hands? That - might be the question also. But any way you shake it, if you are in need of a debate topic for a school project, the list is nearly endless. NO ONE should fail debate class nowadays. It should be a minute and mere impossibility. Or should it? So with most everything and anything up for debate today, I’m throwing my hat in the ring. With all the seriousness going on everywhere, how’s about a good old-fashioned and silly and completely useless and utter waste of time and ridiculous debate. A debate that no matter who wins and who loses, the world won’t end. The loser won’t cry. And the winner didn’t actually even win anything? Cause, guess what else? I Don’t even have a trophy to present. So to the loser, I say here and now: No hard feelings. It’s all just for laughs… Well - and to give me something to do... So earlier this week I decided to go on a couple of outings, all involving donuts... I wanted to conduct a taste test and experiment of my very own. So, my husband and I played out my first ridiculous challenge of 2020. And I am hereby calling it: “The Very Official And Quite Serious Donut Debate of 2020”  Nope, I’m not here to talk politics. Nor the Golden Globes. Nor the Oscars. Nor the Twitterverse. Nor even the Universe V. Multiverse theory. I’m simply here to talk about donuts. Got it? And to make matters even more nonsensical and useless and to waste even more of everybody's time and efforts - I was completely biased going in, and I had many preconceived notions... How dare I? I thought I knew who was gonna win, and I was overly confident in who I thought would lose. Yes, I was completely biased. And bias is allowed. Cause guess what? It’s all for F.U.N. I mention my bias, my preconceived notions, etc. because at the end of the day the winner actually surprised me. Honestly. Yes, I was wowed by one, and I was under-wowed by the other. And the winner was NOT at all who I thought it was going to be. Here’s my bias: First of all, I LOVE donuts. Yes, I love donuts so much that people have made fun of me about it many times in the past. I am the donut girl. Long story. Not relevant. No big deal. But, anyways, I love donuts. So, naturally, I love Dunkin Donuts. Or, ‘Dunkin’ as they are calling themselves nowadays. I know and love their coffee, and I know and love their donuts. I know how many calories are in their donuts and how to plan their donuts into my day no problem without gaining a bit of weight. Cause since we’re talking scientific theories today, weight maintenance is all about the Calories IN V. Calories OUT theory. And, here’s my preconceived notions: I always assumed Krispy Kreme was THE BEST. And I have NEVER ever, once ever, been to a Krispy Kreme. Did I mention never? I know, I know…. How does someone who loves donuts not once have stepped their feet inside a Krispy Kreme? It’s possible. Because I have never been to a Krispy Kreme until this week, for this challenge. And, again, I just assumed through my preconceived notions and probably through their very good marketing strategy throughout the years that reflected upon me a highly sought-after and nothing-like-it-on-this-Earth quality donut. So, I decided that I wanted to finally try Krispy Kreme, and see if they measured up to my beloved Dunkin. My forever faithful, my forever reliable, my delicious, and my heavenly, Dunkin. So, naturally, step one of my challenge meant that I needed to go to Dunkin. Because it all starts at Dunkin. I needed to purchase their plain original glazed Dunkin Donut to try before trying the exact same at Krispy Kreme. And yes, we ate a lot of donuts this week, and all for the sake of the written word, or for science. My tummy thanks you for the opportunity to present this completely educational and very scientific information to you. So off we went to Dunkin. One large hot latte for myself at 130 calories (my favorite drink of the moment), and one large iced latte for the hubby - who doesn’t need to count a single calorie... so none will be listed here. We each tried one original glazed, which clock in at 260 calories per donut. Good. Great. The best ever. According to me. Hubby thinks they are just fine - he is not at all passionate about donuts like I am, so this answer was exactly what I expected from him. Dunkin is busy. Always. Very busy. We always wait in a line - during the morning commuter rush. No complaints, just mentioning because they seem to have a large fan base. There are always customers. And, most all of the tables are taken inside the small shop on Beach Boulevard in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. As just as many people sit and linger, and talk, or work on the WiFi, as they do take their orders and run out the door with them. After all, American Runs On Dunkin, right?  Up next - Krispy Kreme. The next morning - same time of day. To finally try my first original glazed, fresh out of the fryer. The original. The classic. Since 1937. So there we off and went, and actually left the island… “Over the Ditch” as the locals say. So over the river and through the woods we went. Or over the Intracoastal and through the swamps. Same thing. Until I had finally arrived for the first time in my entire life at a Krispy Kreme. Specifically, the Krispy Kreme in the city of Jacksonville, Florida - the one on Atlantic Boulevard.    They were busy but not too busy. There was always someone placing an order, but only one table out of all the many was actually taken. Almost the entire dining room area was empty. Most everyone took their orders to go, and no one stayed, or lingered, or worked or conversed, even for a second. It was buy and run. And most ordered a box of a dozen - Just as we did. We asked for two coffees and a dozen original glazed @ 190 calories per specimen placed atop the Bunsen Burner. They immediately proceeded to inform us their coffee machines were broken and they could not serve us any coffees, lattes, espresso, or even any of their delicious and temptation-filled-looking frozen drinks - etc. I was crushed. I can’t even tell you how crushed. If there’s anything I love more than donuts - it’s coffee. My laboratory might have well just exploded in my face. Ouch! So, minus our coffee, we proceeded to sit at the counter overlooking the bright and sunny day outside the window. And we took our dozen shiny specimens and tried them hot and fresh, straight out of the fryer, and straight off the belt.       They were good. But that’s just it. They didn’t wow me! They were simply good. Immediately I was completely shocked at myself. I was expecting to be blown away. I was expecting to tell myself that these were the best donuts I ever ate and that I would be needing them in my life, every single day. For the rest of my life. But, Nope. They were just “fine” to me. And not only were they just fine, they had a strange aftertaste. In each bite. I naturally attributed this taste to the donut coming straight off the conveyor belt? And I thought I’d wait it out before trying another one. To see if that taste went away? So after I ate one whole donut very, very hot, and had this realization, I immediately decided I would try my next one well after they were cooled off. To taste the difference based on the temperature of the donut. All for research purposes, of course.    So we went home, and I placed the donuts delicately on top the kitchen counter. And there they sat… thumbing their fingers at me... just waiting… yep, begging to be devoured. And still fresher-than-fresh mind you. They were just letting off some steam, I guess. So, later that day I succumbed to all temptation and tried my next specimen, my room-temperature Krispy Kreme original glazed donut. And to my sincere shock and great surprise, that donut utterly and completely WOW - ed me. It really tasted a literal THOUSAND times better than the first one! Ok…..? So, I just don’t like HOT donuts? I asked myself. I guess I like ‘normal’ temperature donuts? And without even mentioning as much to the hubby… he then came along and tried his second donut. And he said the same exact thing. Wow! They are much better cooled off. So, there ya go. We were both in agreement as to the fact that we did not care for the hot donuts. But we both loved them cooled off, after they had a chance to breathe fresh air before consumption. And then… Turn the page, will you? The very next day came along. And we both tried ‘day-old’ donuts... Even better, yet again. 1000% better than the previous 1000% upgrade! Wow! So basically, I came to the conclusion that the hot ones tasted like fried dough, from a carnival booth, which I love, but also with some strange and funky aftertaste. And the older ones tasted like a real, normal donut. A really good donut, an amazingly good and delicately frosted donut. And the older the donut got, the farther away that aftertaste was in my mouth. So after all that, I really was genuinely surprised. I challenged myself to try Krispy Kreme for the first time. I sincerely thought that after one bite I would fall in love and tumble into and under a terrible spell and never to be awakened. But alas, that was not the case. I still loved Dunkin better. Yes, even though Krispy Kreme did WOW me. I guess it’s all because they didn’t WOW me right away. I went all the way there to truly be wowed by their donuts. But that didn’t happen till much later on. And let’s not forget about the coffee - although I understand they can’t help that their machines were down. But Dunkin - omg - I love their every donut, I love their coffee selection. And I love that they are just about anywhere and everywhere you need them to be. And I love that their coffee machines have never been down on me once. I just - LOVE them. And even though I loved the Krispy Kreme better the older it got, I still favored Dunkin after all that. After all said and done. And eaten. Of course, I’m being completely biased, and to be completely fair I totally understand that I may have arrived at a Krispy Kreme for the first time in my life on the very day their coffee machines went down, and much to my detriment. However, the donuts just weren’t that ‘special’ to me. They were normal. They were not “leveled up” as I sometimes say. They did not wow me in any way - except - in the act of comparison to itself as it changed temperature - the thing that did WOW me was the difference in taste between a hot donut and a room temperature donut. That was the only real and true wow Krispy Kreme gave me. I did like them enough that I will go back though. In fact, we purchased the dozen this week on a coupon they sent us in the mail for $5.99 per dozen. And our receipt revealed that deal gave us $3.00 off. And then, so ironically and only one day later after our scientific experiment concluded, and after never receiving Krispy Kreme coupons in my life until just this past month, yet another coupon arrived in the mail. Giving us a few dollars off a future dozen. So, I’ll be back. And I’ll get that coffee I missed out on too. And I’ll be sure to try some other flavors in that dozen… like some frosted, and some sprinkled. And I’ll fill you in, if you want to be filled in on my future findings? After all, what’s a scientific experiment without repeat trials?   But for now, I’m sticking with my reliable and consistent Dunkin Donuts. Dunkin - who is never far away from me. Donuts - that always wow me with every bite. Latte - that is my drink of choice for the time being. All in all, and to summarize my findings, I hereby present and give to ‘Dunkin’ the award for best glazed original donut - over Krispy Kreme, coming in a not-far-behind second place, with a very doughy taste. Both were wonderful. But Dunkin is my go-to, and like I said... I guess I’m just completely biased. I went into it all thinking Krispy Kreme was going to win, hands down. Thinking I’d be awestruck by them. To go over the moon for them. But that did not happen. And Dunkin it was for me, and still is. And that shocked me too. So while this was all for fun, and our tummies consumed much deliciousness and many calories all for nothing really except this herein stated conclusion, maybe we all can take something away from this today. Maybe we all can just laugh at ourselves more… and hate ourselves less. Maybe we all can be nicer to one another… and more forgiving of one another... Maybe we can all sit atop the counter for a while… and let off some steam before taking our next bites. After all, things might taste very different after some time has passed. And so to conclude today’s task at hand, while I can tell you which donut I like better - please, please, PLEASE - don’t ask me to choose between Kate and Meghan. I’m begging you. That’s much too serious a topic; and I just can't do it. I love them both equally... There are some things in this world that just aren’t up for debate. ~  Hey!
