Girls Just Want To Have Donuts

Girls Just Want To Have Donuts

Whoever said diamonds are a girl's best friend has obviously never had a donut. I possess an unhealthy love for them and in all honesty, eat them way more than I probably should. Is that going to stop me? Yeah, no.

The only thing I like more than actually consuming donuts is looking at pictures of them. I'm currently obsessed with food Instagrams from San Francisco and New York boasting mile-high cheeseburgers, insane milkshakes that practically smell like diabetes, and of course, the insane donut options. Yes, please. So imagine my hype at finding out that my small college town had a shop that sold donuts that resembled those in my fave Instas (major hype).

Kai's Doughnut Co. is by far my favorite place to eat. The whole place has a really cool vibe that's perfect for eating and hanging out. From the plants in Cafe DuMonde coffee canisters to the brightly colored donuts in the cases, it has a very picture-worthy atmosphere. And in case you weren't already sold, the owners occasionally bring in their dog who sits in a chair. Donuts and dogs, what could be better?

While the atmosphere of Kai's is great, their food is even better. They have an amazing selection of donuts and kolaches. Not to mention, their Vietnamese iced coffee is the absolute bomb. They've got donuts that look like Elmo and Cookie Monster, complete with a chocolate chip cookie, and maple donuts featuring strips of bacon on top. They've got donuts covered in breakfast cereal, crunched up cookies and candy. Plus specialties like German chocolate cake, and traditional choices like sprinkles and glazed. My personal favorite donuts include:

1. The Nutella Filled One

This donut is foodie heaven, and not to mention completely photogenic. It's a square shaped pillowy donut covered in cinnamon sugar and filled with Nutella. It's so good and super filling. 10/10 would recommend.

2. The Samoa One

If you don't like Girl Scout cookies, then I probably don't like you. But for those who do, the Samoa donut is basically the best thing ever. A yeast donut with peanut butter frosting, a chocolate drizzle, and a cookie showcased on top. This is (Cue Chris Traeger voice) literally the only way anybody should eat cookies.

3. The Red Velvet One

Whoever decided to turn chocolate cake red was a genius and Kai's tribute to red velvet cake is delicious. It's simple, a glazed red velvet cake donut with a cream cheese frosting swirl in the middle, but so good I'm always ready to eat at least 3 of them. Plus, they're just really pretty too.

Basically, if you're ever in College Station/Bryan area, Kai's is a place that should be on your To-Eat list. If not, you're seriously missing out.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
