Waking up at 6:30 this morning to make a special breakfast for the first day back to preschool was a pretty great way to start the day. The house was quiet, the day full of potential. And what better breakfast to have than a batch of homemade doughnuts with a side of blackberries? I don't think any 4 year old could have wished for more (not to mention me because, of course, I had to help him eat them).
As a back-to-school gift for his teacher we set aside some of the rainbow-sprinkled doughnut holes. Tossing them into a striped paper bag and adding a tag, we were good to go. Oh, but not until after the obligatory picture on the front steps.
Seriously, friends: I have the cutest kid. If it's back-to-school time at your house, too, I hope the year holds fabulous things for you. And plenty of doughnuts.
