Elevenses (and Tenses)
The English have an old custom of taking a snack break at around 11:00AM. They call it Elevenses. When we lived there, we seemed to notice there was a strong tendency for the workers to take a less formal break at 10:00AM. Thus, C and I made up the word "Tenses". That seems a more reasonable time to bridge the gap between Breakfast and Lunch.
We still enjoy our Tenses at the little donut shop in Van. The Donut Palace is technically a chain, but no two are alike. It's run by a Korean couple that have perfected these little heart stoppers. I'd put their plain glazed donuts up against anything Krispy Kreme can produce.
