Creme Puff?

You Are a Boston Creme Donut

You have a tough exterior. No one wants to mess with you.
But on the inside, you're a total pushover and completely soft.
You're a traditionalist, and you don't change easily.
You're likely to eat the same doughnut every morning, and pout if it's sold out.

After that unexpected result (see below), it is a comfort to discover that I am in good company on this subject. Although I'm not so sure about the first line. There could be some debate about the second. The third appears to contradict my Inner European. And, although I have been known to pout if my selection is unavailable, I don't eat donuts every morning, or even all that often, lest I become too doughy.

That said, what with my recently bruised ego and all this talk of donuts, I'm tempted to comfort myself this morning with a good chocolate old-fashioned. Or maybe a glazed old-fashioned. Or maybe both. But not a Boston creme, thank you. It's a nice day for a walk to the donut shop.

My husband's a Boston Creme Donut (Exhibit 1: He actually let me trap him into taking an internet quiz; I think his blood sugar was low).

I am a Caramel Crunch Donut:

You're a complex creature, and you're guilty of complicating things for fun.
You've been known to sit around pondering the meaning of life...
Or at times, pondering the meaning of your doughnut.
To frost or not to frost? To fill or not to fill? These are your eternal questions.


The only thing is ... I don't actually like doughnuts, have no problem resisting them at this stage in life, and I would not now be, nor ever would have been, caught dead eating a Caramel Crunch Donut.

Hand over the bagels, will ya? And don't forget the lox.

Have the lot of the lox but don't even think about even a shmear of the cream cheese. That's all mine. After I butter the bagel, of course.

BTW, you can crack a tooth with a bagel, you know! How are you feeling today?

Before I take the test, I'll say I'm a Krispy Kreme doughnut because I live in the place where it all began. And don't forget that the sprinkles change color as the seasons do. Krispy Kreme with sprinkles....mmmm.....

Honestly, this about covers it for me (given my limited knowledge of the various results):

You Are a Powdered Devil's Food Donut

A total sweetheart on the outside, you love to fool people with your innocent image.
On the inside you're a little darker, richer, and more complex.
You're a hedonist who demands more than one pleasure at a time.
Decadent and daring, you test the limits of human indulgence.

I think you may have been disappointed because the results are generic donuts and don't include Krispy Kremes specifically, Ruth Anne.

Reader: I've never heard of a caramel crunch donut. Maple and caramel are far too sweet for me in the morning.

Jason: Based on what you've written on your blog, I agree that the donut psychic came pretty close with your answer ;-)

P.S. Never got around to getting that old-fashioned as I got caught up in the entertaining Althouse vortex yesterday.
