Summer Outing

Unaware of how warm the weather would get this past weekend, I declined to pack a pair of shorts for our office summer outing to Provincetown. As a group of us negotiated the sinking sand of the very long stretch of beach between the motel and the town, where we hoped to find sustenance, in our jeans and flip flops, some natives commented, "What is this a field trip, why aren't you in your swimming suits and shorts?" Well, it was a "field trip" of sorts with the exception that no one had to have a pink permission slip signed by their parentals. While the weather was great and our dinner at the Lobster Pot gut-bustingly delicious; my find of the weekend was a donut type pastry from the Portuguese Bakery. It was fried dough filled with custard and coated with cinnamon and sugar...kind of like a churro filled with custard. The next day, I mentally debated for longer than I care to admit whether to buy myself another custard filled donut bun.
