Today we take a walk down Memory Lane to May, 1983 in beautiful Orlando, Florida with Moe and Mark during his Navy boot camp graduation weekend. Still going strong 31 years later!
RTC Orlando may still only exist in pictures, legends and memories but Moe and Mark drive on! Read their amazing and heartwarming story here.
What time is it? Why, donut time, of course.
This week we take a look at the mating rituals of a simpler time, in the days before online dating and other such things. Guys, always keep an eye on what the other hand is doing!
As we celebrate our final #tbt of Donut Month, 2014 we take you back 70 years to Donut Month, 1944. With our troops deployed on opposite sides of the world and engaged in a valiant struggle against the Axis powers, the humble donut brought a taste of home to a lonely foxhole.
As we continue our walk down Memory Lane during Donut Month 2014, let’s take a look back to Donut Month, 1945, where then as well as today our fighting forces were given a warm welcome home after giving so much to protect that which we all hold dear.
As we continue to celebrate Donut Month 2014, let’s go back to the year that the first crystal-clear FM radio transmission was heard, Frank Sinatra gave his premiere singing performance in Indianapolis, Walt Disney’s “Pinocchio” premiered in New York City, Boston’s Jimmie Foxx HR went over Comiskey Park’s left field roof, McDonald’s opened its premiere restaurant in San Bernardino, California…
…and a box of donuts, a ball of string, some bow ties and a few good friends was all you needed for a great night of fun and games!
It’s harvest time, and as we all know, harvest time is donut time! First proclaimed in 1928, this year we celebrate the 86th annual Donut Month. This classic work of art celebrates Donut Month, 1949. An awful lot may have changed in the past 65 years, but the traditional bonding of donuts and the autumn season remains constant.
Donuts were such a valued morale-booster on the front lines during both the first and second World Wars, the month of October was designated “National Donut Month”. Donuts, and the volunteers who brought them to our troops, were a welcome break on our front lines.
“A Taste of Home” – the heartwarming donut still means more than just “something good to eat”.
It certainly is…love at first bite!
