wenDONUTopia: Washington, D.C.

Welcome. I started blogging about donuts to coincide with the 2016 presidential inauguration. Initially, I explained my obsession with donuts like this: “they’re delicious, it's silly, and in a world so riddled with serious issues, donuts provide comic, tasty relief.” Over the last few years I have come to realize that a love of donuts is universal and can translate and enable dialogue across cultural, political, economic class, and gender lines. I haven’t met a cab or LYFT driver who was not willing to engage in a discussion about donuts—which gradually evolved into other topics. So, with that, I’d like your help. Please share your donut experiences with me (at wendonutopia@gmail.com) and while you’re munching on donuts, use that experience as an opportunity to listen to others' points of view. It works.

Sometimes, you need to go back to a donutterie—either because it is just too scrumptious to miss or because you want to check out whether the vibe is different in another location. In June, 2017, we visited Sugar Shack in Arlington, VA, and reveled in the décor and delightful flavors. In May, 2019, I was in Washington DC and needed to satisfy a donut craving—so headed out to a more urban Sugar Shack with two (relatively) new donut-loving friends. The décor was still delightful (but slightly different from the original Sugar Shack) but we availed ourselves of new flavors and found the visit absolutely splendid.
