NEW ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: CORRECTING A NATIONAL MISUNDERSTANDING 👑🍩
Attention, Crawlers.
Princess Donut would like to make something very clear.
Despite what you've been told, National Donut Day is NOT a celebration of fried pastries. It is, and always has been, a celebration of Princess Donut.
Frankly, she finds it to be an outrage that people continue to confuse her special day with breakfast foods.
To celebrate properly, Princess Donut recommends the following:
👑 Admire Princess Donut
👑 Talk about Princess Donut
👑 Purchase books featuring Princess Donut
👑 Remind Carl that today is not about him
Reward: Staying in Donut's good graces should be enough reward for you Crawler.
Happy National Princess Donut Day!
There’s nothing quite like opening a box of new adventures. 👀
