Serious Eats discovers mini-donuts. The place is called Sil's and it's in Milwaukee. So my first thought, of course, was: when am I going to Milwaukee? Cos the state fair's not until October. But I am forced to conclude that the physical distance from here to Wisconsin is actually much greater than the temporal distance from here to October.

Also, it's Marching to Madness time which means lots of fun things on the internets which are bracket-shaped in one way or the other. Last year I think there was a meat bracket and of course there's the fug brackets over at GFY (I'm pretty sure I blogged about a couple last year but search function on House of Dioxin is broken right now and I'm feeling too lazy to sift thru the archives to check). The first one I've seen this year is a beer bracket. I'll be interested to see how blind his tastings are going to be cos some of those it's gonna be pretty visually obvious which is which.
