For all of yee, who love bakery ;-)

So this is a short one but only because we here at The Bud will be doing a very SUPPLE (and i hope im not jinxing it---- *unjinx!*) entry come Monday. *Barry White Voice, ahem*

This is the ValenTIMES day special for all the lovers out there. Lovers of food that is. Babies, until then, snack on this here delicacy... Donuts from Sublime Bakery, oooooooooh yyyyyyeaaaaah.

*Okay Barry White Voice OVER*

This was a random treat. Saw a friend's post on the deliciousness and thought I'd go try it out after reading that there was a Maple Bacon Donut! Uh. Yeah. Fantastico. But be warned. You may have to make this a date because these are the most expensive damn donuts this side of the Mississippi. Maybe think of them more as light weight pastries and your feelings wont be hurt after you get the bill. We're talking he sells them by the dozen but he doesn't price them by the dozen. Ever buy a $30 dozen of donuts? And they don't last long either, because they are amazingly good. Try the powdered donut with fresh strawberries and cream. Man o man. Yum. I still dream of it. The other thing is decor, not much. But don't let that sway you some of the BEST eateries back home in New Orleans are what we like to call a "Hole in the Wall", its true people have made songs about it....

I have to say initially I was on the fence about this place, only because besides all that in the paragraph above.. the interaction was really weird. WHICH! i have to say is a tad abnormal for me, and it really kind of gummed up the works. But after reading in an article on the place, post-visit, that the owner was a Navy man, his weirdness all made sense. How endearing is a slightly agitated exNavy man with little to say, selling soon to be world famous donuts.... I love it. The article also said he's just starting out so he's trying to afford it until he can make it better so I respect that, Alot.  Do me a favor, go on a date. Sublime Donuts on 10th street. Here's the flavors we tried: Banana Fritter, Chocolate Mixed Berry Fritter, Powdered Donut with fresh Strawberries and Cream, Reeses Peanut Butter, Butterfinger, Orange Cream Star. They were gone in less than a mile down the road....
