So, Migs, Gail, Jayvee, Noel, JAngelo and I are going to the Exist PressCon this afternoon around 3PM at the Shang-rila, Mandaluyong.

Right after that, we may hang-out at the Shang-rila Malls and munching Krispy Kremes. They arrived at home yesterday — 2 boxes of them, a dozen each.

So, in the spirit of the Yuletide season, I’m inviting everyone to pass by and join us in the feast! *hehehe* If you’re in Ortigas or anywhere near, join us — and as I said before, doughnuts are on me!

There’s Starbucks at the ground floor so we might head off there afterwards, around 5PM. Text or email me or any of the guys above if you’re interested in the meet-up. I’m sure it’ll be loads of fun. ;)

P.S
Obet is right, the doughnuts are excessively sweet. I couldn’t even finish one. Prolly if you pair it with hot un-sweetened cappuccino, you could take in two but that’s as far as I would go.

P.S.S
I met up with expat blogger Nick Nichols of Mamutong.com yesterday afternoon over coffee and dinner. Really nice guy. I’d like to ask him to join in but he’ll be flying back home to Davao in the evening today.

Yes it was loads of fun. Hey guys join us next time! We haven’t claimed our Krispy Kreme yet! Abe wasn’t able to bring them.

Yugs,

It seems that your pinoyblog.com is now being bombarded by spammers from Dating World.

Oh yeah great, I just woke up from bed around the time for the meetup :| Join ako next time a!

Obet · 20 years ago

Yep, it’s one of the sweetest things you will ever taste. I wonder if KK Philippines will be affected by the KK scandal in the US? Type the keywords krispy kreme coo tate in Google and see what comes up.

dunkin donuts are already too sweet for my taste. dis is even sweeter?! masarap na mr. donut sakin. ;-)

Noemi · 20 years ago

I got to taste Krispy Kreme. I think my blood sugar shot up that my eyes became blurry. I would love to meet up but am the driver of my daughter today.

I am out of the country right now for personal reasons.

Just to share, im an internet person, browsing about 8 hours a day but never did i spend more than a minute to any blog before. Probably because i dont find most interesting except for this yugatech.

Great work. Btw, once i return next year, ako taya sa donuts. :)

DannyBoy · 20 years ago

Bad combo Yugs. Too much time sitting doing PC/NB and all + a lot of sugar intake courtesy of KK. Bad for our health.

uy! mamaya na ‘to. Kita kit’s sa Shang!

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 20 years ago

Hi Jazzy! Why don’t you join us?

Jazzy · 20 years ago

I believe they’re on testing stage. I love the original flavor and that’s the only thing i eat from them.

It taste even better if the dough was taken just few seconds from the machine.

I wish i can meet abe. :)

I agree that their donuts are way too sweet and that’s why I still prefer our local donuts here. Perhaps Krispy Kremes is an overhyped brand.
Would love to join your EB but it’s grocery day. :(
