Californian donuts in Deventer? Apparently? The li Californian donuts in Deventer? Apparently? The list of donut flavours at @dailydonutdeventer was wild:
🍩 vanilla glazed
🍩 chocolate 
🍩 strawberry rainbow
🍩 blueberry
🍩 lemon merangue
🍩 marshmallow
🍩 mango coconut 
🍩 maple bacon
🍩 oreo
🍩 white chocolate caramel
🍩 lemon cheesecake 
🍩 smarties 
🍩 cinammon 
🍩 boston cream
🍩 cafe au lait
And of course 
🍩 tompouce...

We went for tompouce and maple bacon, and they were *chef's kiss*, although I couldn't finish the tompouce one by myself (not something i say very often you know 😛). Looking back on that list though, there are a few I wouldn't have minded trying out... what's your choice??

This giant piece of architectural beauty is De Waa This giant piece of architectural beauty is De Waag - the old weighing house from 1531, and it sits slap bang in the centre of the town square.

Coo-ee can you see me heh heh. My tiny head was trying to pose with the stone lion on the banister but yeah, the whole building just engulfs me so it's hard to see my cheesy grin. Probably for the best eh. 

At the weekend, the market stalls are set out in front of the building (swipe left? Or right? I literally don't know... left... ???? Crikey I'd be bad at Tinder). I don't know about you but I'd love to have my mini florist stall outside De Waag 🤩🌷

De Walstraat is Deventer's oldest street lined wit De Walstraat is Deventer's oldest street lined with shops of every description. Antiques, sjokolaa (can you guess what that one sells?), EVEN AN ENGLISH TEA ROOM. I know. They sold crumpets. But they weren't open...

The white line is supposedly meant to keep people walking on the 'correct side of the road' but as you can see, not everyone got the memo 😂

Hello, does anyone fancy wandering the ultra cute Hello, does anyone fancy wandering the ultra cute streets of Deventer with me over the next few days?!

We did 24 hours in #deventer this weekend and it's become my new favourite smaller city in NL. Guys, it's well cute.

Obviously Covid restrictions meant we couldn't enter shops or cafes, but that's cool. Who doesn't love wandering the streets with a Chai Latte warming up your fingers and a puntzakje full of your favourite joppie covered friet?!

Anyway, hope you guys had a lovely easter. We're celebrating today with brunch and it's just started snowing. April really will do what it wants eh ❄

Looking out over the Ijsselmeer from Stavoren Have Looking out over the Ijsselmeer from Stavoren Haven. You can't tell because of how calm and sunny everything is in this pic, but it was super windy and my fingers were blue from the cold. The Netherlands really is a 4 seasons in one day kinda place ⛵🌬☀️
