I Just Found The Best Doughnut Place
Sarah Fetter

I decided at last minute that I would make the 2-hour drive to Ocean City, New Jersey, the beach that's most likely the closest to me. It was the first time this summer that I would stay for more than a day, so I decided to make it worth my while and do some shopping on Asbury Avenue while I was there.

Let me tell you, my feet led me to the cutest little doughnut joint in town. Fractured Prune is located at 1225 Asbury Avenue in OCNJ, and it thrives off of made-to-order specialty doughnuts. They have lots of other locations located on their website: https://fracturedprune.com/.

The shop has 19 glazes:

  • Banana
  • Blackberry
  • Blueberry
  • Caramel
  • Cherry
  • Chocolate
  • Honey
  • Key Lime
  • Lemon
  • Maple
  • Marshmallow
  • Mocha
  • Mint
  • Mixed berry
  • Orange
  • Peach
  • Raspberry
  • Strawberry
  • Vanilla

And 13 toppings:

  • Chocolate Sprinkles
  • Cinnamon & Sugar
  • Cookie Crumbs
  • Crumbled Bacon
  • Graham Crackers
  • Granulated Sugar
  • Mini Chocolate Chips
  • Mini Candy-Coated Chocolates
  • Mini Marshmallows
  • Powdered Sugar
  • Rainbow Sprinkles
  • Sea Salt
  • Vanilla Wafers
They also have a list of pre-made combinations in the event you can't decide. I know I definitely couldn't.

I got a half dozen just to try, each one completely different from the last. I got glazes I never knew could be put on...topping combinations that I otherwise never would have tried. I also got a caramel macchiato and it was a great partner to my warm doughnut. You can also save them and reheat later, or just eat them at room temp if you prefer.

I found their name kinda quirky, but my questions were answered when I read their founding sign on the wall. Apparently, there was an older lady in OC, Maryland named Prunella Shriek, known as "Fractured Prunella" for the broken bones she suffered competing in traditionally men's sports even into her 70s. The doughnut shop aims to celebrate individuality and spunk with each doughnut creation. They even have a doughnut dedicated to the legend herself, named Ms. Prunella respectively, with blueberry glaze and cinnamon sugar on top. Pretty cool!

I surprisingly found locations in West Chester and Audobon, PA, which are insanely close to me...so catch me waking up every morning at school to a delicious FP doughnut!! *insert heart eyes here*

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
