I'm sure it is, but it doesn't have the visual attraction of this[^]

That looks disgusting. Like something a vampire threw up.

If it's glazed, it's not a donut.

It's a donut with glaze on it. Best if it's maple glaze with bacon bits.

Oh yes, I remember that.
One Bulldog Bash[^] Herself and I were wandering around one evening (comfortably numb) and found a fresh doughnut stall opposite an Irish Coffee stall (50% coffee, 50% Irish). We alternated between the queues, consuming the product from one while waiting for the other for a couple of hours...

When you learn how to capitalise 'i' you are going to be over the moon.

I never understood it. Why it should be capitalized if its not in the beggining of the sentence?

Ah. Well...now you ask...
In Old and Middle English, the word for "I" was closer to its German cousin "ich" and it was often spelled "ic" However, all languages change, and the pronunciation changed over time, losing the "c".
Trouble was, it looked bad: it was tiny, and easy to miss, so it slowly grew in size to make it more noticeable and readable - bear in mind that it was all hand-written (on expensive materials) in those days.
Slowly, the height grew, and it became a capital letter.
Interestingly, the only other accepted single-letter word in English "a" didn't do this, partly because it is less essential to the sentence, and partly because the capital "A" is more intrusive visually!

I'll email you a couple...
They really don't post well: I had a girlfriend who worked a CERN in Geneva while I was in England, and she mained about the lack of doughnuts. So I posted her half dozen. By the time they arrived they were about 1cm thick and you could have used them for hockey...

Maimed? That is a bit excessive.

Yes postal services are just epic, especially ours here. In the beggining of February around 10th we received some xmas cookies from one of the firm's offices i believe in Poland or France i am not sure which one sent them. This little fact didn't distract us from eating them

Citrous every time for me!

The link was on that page for Túró[^]; sorry I didn't go all out with accents earlier as I thought all all vowels [where you use them] are the same in Welsh Wales
|

Welsh has the same vowels as English, plus 'w' and'y', but the pronunciation is different: it doesn't vary in welsh the way it does in English. Instead, we have accents: circumflex (^), which lengthens the sound of the vowel, and the acute (´), which shortens it. Occasionally the diaresis appears on the letter ï, to signify a doubling of the sound.
And we change the word start to make it easier (and better sounding) to say - called mutation.
Surprisingly, it's one of the oldest unchanged languages in Europe: 14th century Welsh bibles are immediately readable to a "modern" Welsh reader.
But... It does look like it was English spelt by a 6year old sometimes!
