From The Club
What a way to start the new year! Krispy Kreme has been on a roll since Christmas, and I’m glad they’re offering a week of new year fast food deals. How generous is that? On the other hand, Long John Silver’s also has some exciting offers. I haven’t tried anything from their menu but I heard the hushpuppies taste amazing. Since I want to be more active in trying new things, I might just end up in Long John Silver’s before January ends. Gotta try that Chicken Basket!
