The Metro Mag article that Heavy Table shared on The Churn a couple days back had my prompt attention at “really cool donuts” –

I flew through that write up like nobody’s business. I love cupcakes like everybody else, but honestly one of my main true food love is fried dough, typically glazed fried dough. But hey – to each his own, they say.

Check it out – local ladies Dawn Lee and Laura Kennedy have started up something called The Donut Cooperative – out of their love of supporting locally sourced food while using organic ingredients. They’re trying to fund their Donut Cooperative by using this site called Kickstarter. People set up account and if they reach their $ goal in donations within a certain period of time, said endeavor is funded!

So, In like the span of five minutes of hearing of these ladies’ dream I had pledged to donate $50 to the cause, and I don’t donate very often to anything. So, not only do I feel good about it because I love donuts and I love cool lets-get-together stuff like this.

This.Is.Incredible.

Can we rally and donate the rest of the bills they need? Click on this dang link:

Lets lay down some math: as of Thursday late afternoon…

If 280 bucks can get donated every day for the rest of the run… they can make a DONUT CO-OP happen.

And that would be pretty freakin sweet. Literally.
