Who is celebrating this day 6/1?

Doughnut Day
Today (1st June, 2018) is...
Doughnut Day
Everyone loves donuts, there’s something about that delicious
deep fried treat that brings a smile to everyone’s face. Donut
day celebrates this wonderful treat, it’s history and a special
holiday brought into being to honor a special group that arose
during World War I. One of the little-known facts about the
Donut is exactly what that well-known shape is called, read on,
and maybe you’ll find out!
History of the Donut Day
The history of the donut isn’t clearly known, but what is known
is that their iconic look started making an appearance in the
United States in the mid-1800’s. Rumor has it a gentleman by the
name of Hanson Gregory invented them, out of a distaste for the
undercooked centers and greasiness of the existing shapes and
options. The shape was said to be obtained by punching a hole in
the center with a tin pepper box.
There are many varieties of donuts outside of that most commonly
known, including twist donuts, fritters, and the hugely varied
and popular filled donut. Filled donuts come in a huge variety,
including the very popular Devil Dog, a chocolate covered
delight filled with a rich cream. Glazed donuts filled with all
sorts of delicious fruit, with raspberry being a runaway
favorite throughout the world, and lemon filling being an
equally popular.
How to Celebrate Doughnut Day
Doughnut Day came to pass, in part, due to the efforts of a
doctor in the military in the first World War who sought to
brighten the day of the wounded soldiers he worked on. On his
first day to the Military Base, he purchased 8 dozen doughnuts
and gave one to each soldier he worked on.
After giving one to Lieutenant General Samuel Geary, who
received it with great mirth and appreciation for the doctors
work, Samuel decided to start a fundraiser, letting the young
doctor, Morgan Pett, to continue to provide doughnuts to his
patients.
This fundraiser began working together with the Salvation Army
who, after a fact-finding mission, determined that many needs of
the soldiers could be met by creating social centers that would
provide all sorts of amenities, including the doughnuts.
The Salvation Army sent 250 volunteers to France to help put
these huts together, which soon became a mainstay of military
life. One record of a day in the huts recorded up to 300 donuts
and 700 cups of coffee being served as part of their service.
Due to the majority of the workers being female, the Salvation
Army workers started to be known as “Doughnut Dollies.”
These huts went a long way to improving the overall life of the
soldiers during the war and has become a tradition that the
Salvation Army continues to this day as a fundraiser for this
wonderful organization. A great way to celebrate Donut Day is to
volunteer to help this amazing organization on the day they’ve
held for years in support of our armed forces. Just a few hours
of your time or a donation towards their organization will
ensure they continue to be able to do their good work the world
round!

I love donuts but because they are waaay too much sugar, carbs
and fattening, I have them very rarely. My favorites are jelly
donuts, French cruellers, glazed or whole wheat donuts, and
plain or cinnamon cruellers. I will occasionally have a donut
when I stop for coffee at Dunkin Donuts. Back when DS was a
little kid, we used to go to the farm markets that once were
located in the northern part of our county for many years (they
were paved over several years ago and are now strip malls,
office buildings and condos, but that's NJ for you). In the
fall, they would have their cider press and donut fryers going
and we'd have fresh cider and freshly fried cider donuts - YUM!
