What a sad place an office would be on Monday mornings if someone didn’t bring a box of donuts. It’s easy to imagine solitary cowboys out on the range felt this way, too – only there was no Red’s staff up well before dawn to bake fresh donuts ready for pick-up by sunrise. Have them raised and glazed, and then go for variety to take you through the entire week – grab a couple of French on Tuesdays and weekends, or red velvet donuts on Wednesdays and Sundays. Add a raspberry jelly, one or two glazed twists and there’s plenty of variety to make every morning taste better. It’s the best thing since fry bread.
