Today is National Donut Day!

Did you know today is National Donut Day? Well it is! I love donuts, I married into a donut loving family and my son requests donut holes on a weekly basis! So I will definitely be celebrating by picking up a dozen donuts on my way home, including my favorite a rainbow sprinkle donut!

National Donut Day began as a fundraiser for the Salvation Army in 1938. It’s held annually on the first Friday of June, in honor of the female volunteers of World War I who served donuts to soldiers behind the front lines.

This year, the generosity lives on: Dunkin Donuts customers will receive a free donut with the purchase of any beverage, while Krispy Kreme will be handing out one free donut per person (with no additional purchase necessary). Be sure to check out your local donut shop, as other bakeries across the nation are sure to be celebrating.

What is your favorite donut?
