| 6/6/25 Top Pot Doughnuts, West Seattle |
Before heading over to Seattle Chinese Garden with USk, I made an early stop at the West Seattle Top Pot Doughnuts for breakfast. After all, it was a special day: It was National Doughnut Day!
As a regular observer of this holiday, I was appalled by the number of Top Pot customers – every single one except me, in fact – who were clueless about the day! The cheerful staff greeted each one with, “Happy National Doughnut Day!” and each responded with, “Oh – is it today?” or “Is that a thing?” I was the only one who had approached the counter with the greeting first!
How can people go about their lives so unaware? Tsk, tsk.
We celebrate a lot of the national days. When we lived in town and had a place to buy donuts we'd go in for national donut day and the people working at the donut shop were always clueless it was the day. Sad.
ReplyDeleteAt least you were aware and observing the special day!
DeleteI’m coming to WorldCon at the Summit Convention Center in nine weeks. There‘s a group of us who do early morning donut runs when we go to Sci Fi conventions, and this looks like a great option. I’ve passed it on to our ringleader!
ReplyDeleteWe were at the Nebula awards in my hometown of KC for national donut day last week, and had a much longer walk than Top Pot will be.
Top Pot's flagship store is definitely within walking distance! Have a fritter for me! ;-)
