WASHINGTON — Okay, so it’s not terribly healthy, but it’s just once a year.
We eat doughnuts often in the Glass Enclosed Nerve Center, but on National Doughnut Day, we’ll go to where the doughnuts are.
The goal? Hit five popular doughnut shops on Friday morning for a sampling of some of the area’s best.
Itinerary? Check.
Gas? Check.
Coffee? Check.
Here we go.
