There's a donut shop in my area that I've been to, as far as I can recall, twice. Once was several years ago, and again today. It's one of those places that I'm aware of, but it's just far enough outside my usual routine that I don't get there very much. Sometimes there is not all that much difference between being very distant or merely on the periphery.
I went there today, and wrote this post while enjoying a blueberry donut and iced coffee. But the only reason I'm here is because I had an errand across the street. It seemed like a nice day for a little treat afterwards.
Now my donut is tasty, and the coffee caffeinous, but I don't think I'll be back here again soon. It is still off the usual trail, and it is simply not a good enough donut to be worth clearing a new trail just for that.
However. There is a phenomenon that my family and I have noticed, where we will go years without going to some area or part of town, and then suddenly find ourselves going there multiple times in the space of a few weeks for totally unrelated reasons. Have you noticed something similar? So it is possible I'll end up back there sooner than I think.
