Clearwater Travel Plaza also shared a fun fact on Facebook recently that stuck with me. The bakery there orders 84 pounds of sprinkles a week to coat their delicious donuts. To put it into perspective, (if you're like me and numbers don't mean much) that is more sprinkles than the average weight of a full-grown Labrador retriever. That's a lot of sprinkles.

Start daydreaming about a new donut and share it with Clearwater Travel Plaza on Facebook. Who knows, we might even get to taste it for ourselves!
