Let’s talk donuts, shall we? Who doesn’t love the most traditionally delicious dessert ever? I’ve got an event coming that you will not want to miss.

This isn’t just a sweet tooth’s dream come true babes, it’s an event of history and community. This weekend Rockport, Maine is hosting the Annual Rockport Donut Festival and all are welcome!

The bakers are getting ready to wow us all! They are also asking if you are an amateur baker to show us what you got! Check out their Facebook page, below! 

Here’s a cool Snapple fact about donuts, did you know the actual inventor of the donut hole itself comes from Rockport Maine, according to Turtle Bun Bury. Yes, his name is Captain Hansen Gregory and thanks to him, we can now enjoy the very best of traditional American breakfast treats. He’s a donut legend.
