June 6, 2010

My camera got a lot of action this weekend, both in the iHeartFaces Atlanta Photo Walk and in the kitchen. Friday was National Doughnut Day, and although my family snickered and insisted it wasn’t a real holiday, I thought it was a mighty fine excuse to try Rachel’s doughnut holes recipe.
