In honor of this auspicious day, I give you two of my favorite donuts:
- Malasadas. Mmmm, fried dough goodness. Here's the wiki entry about them: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malasada . I can vouch for the deliciousness of the malasadas at Leonard's in Hawaii.
- The hot mini-doughnuts at the kiosk in Pike Place Market. As with the malasadas, they're best when eaten practically right out of the fryer, so the sugar is slightly melty. Plus, it's fun to watch them being made right in front of you! I have no idea if the little cart is still there in the market but I've seen them elsewhere too.
