Picking
Patti up at her care facility we headed over to Café Nell’s at nearby Shurfine
Supermarket. A pair of cinnamon sugar Fastnacht
donuts and a cup of real decaf coffee made for one happy Patti.

Fastnacht
translates from German as “eve of the fast”. In days of yore, the Fastnacht was
made with all the sweets and forbidden items in the household to eliminate
temptation during Lent. A local radio station called them 'a donut on
steriods'. J

Brushing
Patti’s teeth for her and transferring her from wheelchair to bed with a one
person unassisted transfer … I tucked her in for a long winter afternoon’s nap.

Everyone needs an outing out like that for what sounds like a delicious donut!! I'd be tempted to do the same.

There was a hotel right across from dad's facility & I'd wheel him over(he balked at getting into a car,so more travel than that became ruled out)for very delicious lunches & or dinners. Hey, facility lunch is facility lunch.
ReplyDeleteYou need an excuse to go for doughnuts? Patrick, that's just so wrong…!
ReplyDeleteYou had a nice walk) I also tried Fastnacht Donuts. They are fantastically tasty. I hope to come there at least once again.
