Nord's Bakery on Preston
My retired doctor, Dr. Kevin Curran, once said to me at the end of one of my annual physicals, "Father Knott, you need to get off the banquet circuit." He was, of course, referring to my weight. Since I lead so many priest convocations here and abroad, banquets are indeed one of the hazards of my job. However, it cannot all be blamed on banquets.
As I wrote in a previous post, since I retired I like to go to Sunergos Coffee Shop on Preston many mornings when I am home. Next to the coffee shop is Nord's Old Fashioned Bakery. I have been going there even before Sunergos opened. If you go there often, it's one of those places where "everybody knows your name." Sometimes the lines are so long, you would think it is one of those new "drug stores" in Colorado. I do believe their doughnuts are addictive. I even volunteered to work there when I was on sabbatical, which caused many customers to take a "double take." "Hey, aren't you ... uh ... Father Knott?"
