Apparently signing up for a gym membership on the same day you pre-order out of state donuts for the weekend will trigger a credit card fraud alert.... Who, knew? 😂 Stay tuned for a special road tripping edition of David and the Donut Chronicles......

**David and the Donut Chronicles - Birthday week edition** When asked what he wanted to do this weekend for his birthday, our donut King responded "Well, I think we should go get donuts". The original plan was to take a drive up to the North Shore but with the weather being on the snowy side we decided to stay closer to home.

Although Dave was concerned that we were getting off to a late start and that there "wouldn't be anything left after 8 am", happily he was proven wrong. Not only were the shelves well-stocked but they were bringing out a freshly baked tray with more donuts as we walked in. Dave was happy to see that they had both toasted coconut and chocolate coconut donuts, they also had the rarely found French crueller. We decided to try a French crueller and chocolate topped French crueller, blueberry cake, chocolate coconut, jelly filled and a chocolate frosted Bavarian cream. The donuts were extremely fresh and the French cruellers were a spongy delicious surprise. The chocolate frosting on the Bavarian cream was light and mild, but still tasty. The service was friendly and helpful. The fat-belly score was high at the aptly named Friendly Doughnut.

You've asked, we've delivered. There is now an official FB page for David and the Donut Chronicles.

After a holiday hiatus David and the Donut Chronicles are back and now, thanks to Cindy Ella America, properly outfitted.
Today's adventure brought us to Marshfield to check out the Coffee Shack where we chose to try their honey dipped, chocolate honey dipped, red velvet, honey dipped jelly filled, Boston cream and the elusive chocolate coconut. The donuts were fresh and tasty. The honey dipped ones were not overly sweet (in a good way). The red velvet cake was nice and moist and with a great flavor. The chocolate coconut was just a little on the dry side but the small flakes of shredded coconut were the perfect size - the (donut) King was pleased. Added bonus, they have a nice variety of hot and iced coffee flavors and were happy to oblige the request for a blending of two flavors (dark roast and chocolate mint - yum!). Overall The Coffee Shack is worth checking out and is being added to our summer revisit list. Note please note that it is a small place, there most likely will be a line to get in however it is well staffed and everyone was helpful and friendly. .
