To Reciprocate Generosity: Make Treats to Say THX!


Sometimes, I like to be like, gracious and stuff. I like to say THANK YOU for bein' a friend. Travel down the road and back again. Your heart is true, you're a pal and a confidante... Shit, sorry. I often break into the Golden Girls theme song

But, so. To me, the best way to say thank you (for any number of things! Here are some examples: "Thank you for hosting me at your party!" or "Thank you for being nice front office staff in my apartment." or "Thank you for taking me out to a birthday dinner." or "Thank you for coming to my party." or "Thank you and here's something I made to show off how adorable I am." The last one is a bit spiteful, but let's be honest, we've all been there. Not you? Liar.) is by giving people some foods that have been wrapped up real nice.

To Bring Sunshine: Baked Double Chocolate Cake Doughnuts


Joy the Baker's Double Chocolate Doughnuts (link in post)
These baked double chocolate cake doughnuts were made with the intention of bringing some cheer, in the form of rainbow polka-dot sprinkled beautiful chocolatey goodness, to a friend. Anytime a friend of mine experiences something wonderful or less than wonderful, I think: "I'll make them food!" It's my way of saying: "yay!" or "I'm thinking of you."
