The first week of January is such a cliche


That's what my husband said at date night.  Kind of like first week resolutions are for suckers, so lets do our worst.  Well, I totally bought into this.  Hence, there were martinis, clams, dumplings, scallops, short ribs.  Wine.  It was going so well.  And then the dessert menu came around.  I was like oh are you kidding me I want to vomit but they had this thing called Hot Saucy Doughnut Platter that he thought would be a good farewell to week one, January.  Cliche week.  Here's what it looked like.


Expectations were high!  And then the waitress showed us how to inject our dough balls with the Hot Sauce (chocolate, caramel, berry) of our choice from tiny little eyedrop squeeze bottles.  Well it didn't work at all.  So we had doughballs, no hot sauce.  Husband finally got one eyedropper to work and here is a photo of that.


This is how we feel about novelty desserts.  We had the other balls wrapped up for our kids but left them at the restaurant accidentally.  Totally on purpose.

Love,
Kristen

  1. Dum,
    Such a let down. Nothing worse that day old doughnuts (Larry). They are depressing, like seeing a 50+ woman in a forever 21 outfit.

    House Specialty I am assuming too? Sick.

  2. I think they should rename that Gross Injectable Diabetes That Doesn't Even Taste Good. Ah, who am I kidding--husbands all over the world would still order it.

    I love the name of this blog so much, almost as much as I love pretending to shop for my "niece" at Forever 21.

  3. If you could have seen Chris take that first bite after the waitress had fake injected it with chocolate sauce. He was like, "why do you hate me waitress?". Just a mouth full of day old dried out d hole.

  4. SGM,
    I lovingly call that joint Forever 41, as that seems to be the consistent demographic.

    So, SGM, I'm coming to visit next week, should I go there and try this atrocity just so I can say that I did it?

    Love,
    Katie

  7. Aw, you can call me Emily, and thanks. YOU are the funny ones.

    I would be in favor of a name change to Forever 41. It would make me feel a lot more comfortable shopping alongside 15 year olds.

  8. Emily, every time I try to reply to you I get nervous and my husband is freaking out because I've never cared about people that much. Thank you so much for looking at superdum and I can't wait for your next post on SGM.

    Trying not to freak you out with my love,
    Kristen

  9. This might be the first year EVER that I've taken the first week seriously. I can almost hear you shouting "Nerd".

    Kristen,
    Just make sure to dab the sweat off your nose, I've seen it.

    Emily,
    We are all in chick love with you. When can we meet for coffee, or martinis?

    Love,
    Katie

  11. Nerd. I don't even know what your resolutions would be. 10 triathlons? Drinking one glass of wine instead of two? Please post these immediately so I can comment.

    Love
