Centerville, Ohio
Thanks to a kind fella from the Obama campaign, we experienced the goodness that is Bill’s Donut Shop — a Dayton institution of caloric delight.
This place is the real deal. Family owned and operated since 1960. Open 24 hours a day. A counter you can belly up to. Fifty cent refills of coffee (if you have your own Bills mug). Closed between Christmas and New Years. Simple rules too: a handwritten sign says No Loitering.
Talking politics goes good with coffee, but man was it hard to make a decision about which donut to pick.

In a place like that? Are you kidding? Only one answer:
CRULLER! CRULLER! CRULLER! CRULLER! CRULLER!
My pleasure to provide a small reminder Aggie.
That’s what I got Colleen! Loves me some Crullers.
