Voodoo donuts, a Portland classic

I haven't been back to Portland since our flight stop last year. Voodoo Doughnut is a classic. But, this time: a 45 min wait, in the blistering sun! So no doughnuts for us this afternoon. Didi loved the doughnuts display. But, none for him and he was OK with that.

Success in getting these treats! But we went to east Portland store to avoid the wait in downtown. It was a quick car ride after dinner.  I got the sprinkles and pink bubblegum ones. Daddy got M&M's and maple bacon ones. Mommy got easy peasy, lemon cheasy. Uncle T got Portland cream. Yum!  DiDi couldn't have any because they had milk and were fried in soybean oil.  He got Dulce Leche caramel Cherrios instead.... his mini donuts!  Mommy was sure to floss our teeth well tonight

Didi, Daddy and Uncle T love pinball games. And, the voodoo doughnut shop had 4 vintage machines. Didi was fascinated by the flashing bright lights and bouncing  silver balls. Turns out daddy and Uncle T both love playing them. Here they are!  The shop also had a coffin shaped bench, with the lid as the back.  The staff were all pretty strange looking with tattoos, stringy hair and piercings.  Oh well.... that's the look.
