Scarred for life

In the car this morning Robin asked whether there are any donut stores in Costa Rica. I explained (there is a terribly disappointing food item that a lot of people call and consider donuts, but no actual donut stores and, to my mind, no actual donuts), then my mind wandered on to other things while the girls continued to explore the topic.

A couple of minutes later I tuned back in to hear Julia's sing-song enumeration of what the ideal donut store would contain:

"...and cakes...and cookies...and candies...that taste good..."

Next time I come I could try bringing some Dunkin Donuts or Krispy Kremes. (Easier than your hint - when you were first in Costa Rica - that we try bringing some Ben and Jerry's. At least we won't have to buy dry ice for this!)

On the other hand, would CR customs balk at "fresh" food?

Ahhhh, Costa Rican bakeries. Such a shame that they had to find out so young...

But then, if they can remain excited right up to the vomit jellybean, Costa Rican "donuts" might just be for them!
