Donuts

As promised. I don't like them, but I think it's the recipe's fault. Way too sweet and no real flavor other than sweet. Oh well. Can't say I never made donuts.

Lunchtime Encounter

Was walking back to work with my lunch and came across a middle-aged man sitting on a stoop hugging a red teddy bear. He looked sad. I walked by. But I couldn't shake the nudge to go back and check on him. So, I turned around.
I put my hand on his shoulder and asked, "hey, are you okay?" He looked up and stuttered, "I-I-I'm a little, I'm a little hungry."
I opened the to-go box in my hand and asked him if it looked good. I told him he could have it or I would take him to any other restaurant around to get him some lunch. He said what was in my box looked good, and it became his.
I held out a plastic fork wrapped in a napkin. He told me he was allergic to "those" and had been his whole life.
"Allergic to forks?" I asked.
"Yes," he said with a chuckle. "B-b-but, do you h-have a couple dollars so I can get some cigarettes?"
"No, I'm sorry. I have no cash."
"Okay. Thank you."
"Okay. Well, I hope you enjoy your lunch. Wait... What's your name?"
"My family doesn't believe in names."
"You don't have a name?"
"No. They don't believe in names."
"Okay. Well, it's nice to meet you. Have a nice day."

Interesting encounters in the ATL.
