A Second National Doughnut Day

11/5/24 Top Pot Doughnuts, Ballard neighborhood

My observance of National Doughnut Day has always been on the first Friday of June. It turns out that we have a second National Doughnut Day each year – on Nov. 5! It would have been off my radar if I didn’t follow Top Pot Doughnuts on Instagram, but what’s social media for if not to enhance my appreciation for deep-fried dough and sugar? And a self-care doughnut was exactly what I needed on Nov. 5.
