They had one in Mystic, open 24 hours, and Faisal and I went there once or twice on study breaks. The other Mystic kids went far more often than I did, presumably since I was running and trying not to eat donuts. They were good. Not as flaky as DD, which I think is better. A little sweeter, almost like a high quality version of Little Debbie.<BR/><BR/>There were also bible verses on every bag, which was kind of funny. Their coffee wasn't good, but it was drinkable. And one time I was driving back to Middletown senior year from Boston via I-95 and I stopped at the Westerly, RI Bess's. They didn't have the kind of donut I wanted, but it was still good.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, the Mystic Bess Eaton's burned down in the summer of 2004, and I think that was the straw that broke the camel's back. When it was rebuilt a few months later it was a Tim Horton's, and I think Tim bought out all half dozen or so of the Bess Eatons. I went there one night in 2005 when I had driven down from Brattleboro to see Fais and Dan Lazarek, and we went there after a night at Margarita's. <BR/><BR/>I have never had worse coffee in my life. It tasted like green tea mixed with piss. It was disgusting. Their donuts also blew big time. We sat around laughing about how awful everything was, then I drove the two hours back to Vermont with a heavy mind reminiscing over the demise of Bess Eaton. And now I'm heavy hearted thinking about those happy days in Brattleboro, part I.<BR/><BR/>Ahhh, fuckety fuck. Happy thanksgiving.<BR/><BR/>BTBBTBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15194390667052808057noreply@blogger.com
