Verna's

Zach has already come to associate getting his haircut with lolipops - mind you, after a single occurrence and without a reminder over several months. So what's the harm of also associating Verna's donuts (after dumplings from Quingdao)? The lady at Verna's suggested that Zach would like a chocolate stick donut that weighed about 2 pounds, then there was no convincing him to downgrade to the plain old glazed option.

 

Don't tell him, but I ate the other half while he napped later in the afternoon. For the sake of my son's well being, of course.
