Happy National Doughnut Day

It only comes but once a year: a day of celebrating the doughnut, whether shaped like a tire, log, ball, or twist. Actually, we celebrate it pretty often, but this has to be the holiest of do(ugh)nut-eating days. No matter how you spell it, you should eat one today. We've got a list of our favorites from all over the country, info on where to find free ones, and recipes.

Photo of the Day: Tex-Ass Donut

There's nothing particularly special about someone eating a doughnut in the office. But what if the doughnut is five times the size of a regular doughnut?
