the donut

the cd donut

this was actually a cd, my cd, that diana froley put out on her serious records in the ’90s. thanks diana.

i went to the burger-donut shop next to us in emeryville and bought a maple donut and asked for extra sprinkles and i made this. i am sure that donut shop is now generic condos or something.

today i finished an album for vinyl. so that’s exciting.
