SnowJapan Moderator SnowJapan.Com#4 5 Posted January 8, 2010 SnowJapan Moderator Share Posted January 8, 2010 Donuts bought and one consumed. Oh my. Very fine. I have taken a few closups but don't have the cable for my camera with me so it will be tonight when I can upload. We even got 1 サービス donut for 'advertising them' on here. That's how corrupt we are!!
