Arts Fantastic donut!

The feature in this week’s soon-to-hit-the-streets issue is about local crafts and crafters. But my favorite local craft didn’t make it in the paper. It’s sitting right here on my desk.
Oh my God! It’s a super cute donut! Doesn’t it look delicious?! Known food-stealer Josh Feit gawks at it all the time and nary a soul can walk by without wanting to pick the lit’l bugger up and give it a squeeze. Look! Here it is making friends with a manatee-shaped croissant:
Hey there, cute stuff. The donut is hand-sewn from felt and red beads and 100% made in Seattle. You can pick one up at Schmancy downtown for $14. I love you, little donut.
14$ for a fake donut?
You paid $14 for a donut you cannot eat. Very, very peculiar.
Adorable. I'm swooning about your donut and seacow picture.
Screw the dough nut, that hand-sewn croissant is unbelievably realistic. Question: is it just that croissant that looks like a manatee, or do they all? And what does this syncronicity mean?
for the record, I didn't buy it. I liberated it from Charles Mudede's cubicle, where it languished unappreciated amid stacks of police reports and arcane philosophy texts for months.
And if I spend $2.50 on a small coffee, I could drop $14 for a fake felt donut.
your croissant looks like captain gantu from "lilo & stitch!"

ha! so, a stolen, fake donut. curiouser and curiouser.
at least, is the croissant real? AND bought by you?
I can buy a dozen mighty-os for the cost of one of those jobbies. No contest there.
I'm surprised you could find anything in Charles' cube. It's a disaster in there.
Every Saturday morning I walk over to the Vivaci stand on Broadway for a tall americano and my favorite of favoritest donuts... the one with the pink sprinkles.
I think I need a $14 fake donut too!
KEEY-UUTE!!!
I've long admired and coveted Charles' fake pink donut, and am exceedingly jealous that Sarah got him to give it to her.
Of course, I could've asked before she did, but it just didn't seem right, asking Charles for his pink donut.
Internalized homophobia on my part, no doubt...
David -
"asking [insert name] for his pink donut" better fucking makes its way into some sort of common lexicon, because it's the best euphemism I have ever heard.
You've got to thank Tori Spelling for the original "pink donut" innuendo. In the best episode of her tragically short-lived reality/sitcom, she wondered if her crush had turned down her offer of her pink donut from craft services because he thought it was stale.
I guess you had to be one of the 4 people watching...
Sorry.
