In Search of Lost Frost-It-Yourself Donuts – Voice – Carleton College
You are born into the bad and problematic past; your kids are born into the glorious future. But somehow they have the gall to call the glorious future you have provided their own bad and problematic past?
A really great piece of writing regardless of the local angle. She may just win another James Beard for this.
@patrickrhone Wow, excellent. That brings back a lot of memories. Somehow I missed the frost your own doughnut (as I lived only on the east side), but how we did complain about the food in the 1900’s. Obviously it’s so much better today (envy…) – yet still somehow bad and problematic!? Did you go to Carleton?
@poseponder I worked in IT at Carleton for 5 years (I left almost exactly 17 years ago). My best friend also happened to be Dara’s roommate at Carleton.
