Iced Chai Latte - Yum & What's your donut month

Yes, I do love the Iced Chai Latte at Starbucks; it's great for taking on a walk or just sitting and enjoying.

Right now, I'm at the Starbucks in the Rockville Town Square. A new place opened next door...Fractured Prune - The Donut Shoppe. The name of the place is based on the original shop's land location in Ocean City MD which was formerly owned by a woman named Prunella who competed in men's sports but was often injured.

Anyway, that's not why I'm writing about it. The shop's hook is that it has different donut glazes and toppings that you can mix-and-match, much like your drink at Starbucks or your favorite coffee shop. I had a Chocolate Covered Cherry donut (a cherry glaze with chocolate chips). It was hot dipped and VERY messy but still strangely intringuing. Like the Starbucks - there are pre-named items like the Resse Cup (Peanut butter glaze and chocolate morsels), French Toast (maple glaze, cinnamon sugar) AND the Creamsicle (orange glaze, powdered sugar!). I wonder - How well would a creamsicle donut go with a creamsicle latte? hmmmm.

Man, that sounds outta-this-world good! I'm going to have to pop in this weekend. The coffee and donut combos are endless.
