Doughnut Plant's Disco Bathroom

I visited the Doughnut Plant in late April, partly because I was yet again craving another of their fine, fine products and partly because I wanted to see the bathroom.

I didn't necessarily want to use it, but I did want to see it.

As I noted when I wrote about the Doughnut Plant in Chelsea earlier this year, the single stall bathroom is completely covered in tiny mirrors. So while Paul was waiting on our order, Edith and I got buzzed into the bathroom. Purely so I could take photos.







When I was finished, we took our doughnuts (including one of the Sunday specials: a chocolate chip cookie doughnut) to Madison Square Park. Mission accomplished.

Edith vs. Me: Six Month Edition

Way back in college I got a cheapo scanner at one of those office supply stores, and in the following months I scanned dozens of old photos and items. I scanned a bit of my favorite striped scarf. I scanned a sticker from The Shed (there's a reference for all of you northwest Ohioans). I scanned buttons that were in German. I scanned everything.

But I also have some great random photos from when I was younger. One each from trips to Disney World in 1984, 1986 and 1995. Photos from my eighth grade graduation and my high school graduation. And several photos from when I was just barely toddling around.

It's those latter photos that I'm especially interesting in looking at now as Edith grows older and bigger. As Edith hits the corresponding age as I was in some of these photos of yore, I'll be posting them on my blog. They'll be few and far between -- I didn't scan that many photos! -- but I hope you enjoy.

The first in the series was posted shortly after Edith was born (scroll to the bottom at this link). And now, Edith and me at six months:
