The thought of saying "I'm on summer break" makes me giggle. Not many 30 year olds can throw that one out there. I didn't think I would ever have a summer break again, so allow
me to revel in it a bit =] After signing all of my classmates yearbooks and telling them to K.I.T. ("keep in touch"...just joking by the way), I packed my bag and headed back to So Cal. On my way south, I stopped to visit some friends in San Luis Obispo; an adorable beach community about 2 hours north of Santa Barbara. Half it's population attends Cal Poly San Luiso Obispo college, so late night spots that have wifi, cool art hanging on the wall, indy music playing, with cool hipster customers are to be expected. But what I didn't expect was to find it in a donut shop!
Me and my friend Cami threw on our PJs, and headed to SLO Donut Company on a Friday evening. The minute I walked in, I knew I was in trouble. Not only was the girl behind the counter hip, she was very friendly and super helpful.
They had the classics like sugar
dusted, crumb, maple
bars, apple fritters, chocolate glaze, to name a few.
But they also had some really tasty new flavors like a chocolate filled pillow, bacon topped maple bars, cereal, PB & J filled, boysenberry and cream cheese filled, peanut butter filled with chocolate frosting...WOW!
One of my favorite parts was the "Design Your Own Donut" section. There was also a wall filled with used books that one can sift through wile enjoying one of these delectable donuts.
It is places like the SLO Donut Company that make me excited to see what the future holds for the culinary world; so many people with great visions and ideas of how to improve on something and make it an entirely new experience!
