My oldest son adores donuts. His super-thin frame doesn't give away that on occasion he can eat about four donuts in fewer than that many hours. Fortunately for our figures, we don't do a donut run on a daily basis, but for June 3rd's National Donut Day, we definitely will.

While we still have a month left to go before the big event, from today until June 3rd, Entenmann's will donate $1 (up to $10,000) to the Salvation Army for every Facebook "like" they receive. As if that weren't enough, they will be giving away many daily prizes, as well as 10 iPads. (Mmm, iPads are just yummy enough to gobble up, too!)

Why the Salvation Army? Well, apparently Salvation Army volunteers served donuts to troops in WWI, so the organization is credited with popularizing the donut in the U.S. This year in honor of National Donut Day, Entenmann's wishes to honor this service, which likely brought comfort to those young men far away from home.

Disclaimer: For publicizing their Donut Day donation to the Salvation Army, I will receive an Entenmann's Donut Day "prize pack" which will help fund my son's sugar habit. No further compensation or commission will occur as a result of this post.

I'm fortunate to get a lot of press releases about movies. I'm asked to preview movies and then perhaps post the trailer. Most of the time I don't - not because I don't think it might be a good flick, but because I personally have no strong desire to see it. (I'm definitely an "eh, I'll get it on Netflix"-type person.)

But I went to a media event for the Cars 2 Video Game Tuesday night, and last year while in Anaheim learned about the soon-to-be-opened "CarsLand" attraction at California Adventure. And then there is the whole thing that I have two boys who are big fans of the original Cars.

So yeah, I'm looking forward to the release of Cars 2. Check out the Cars 2 trailers over at iTunes to whet your appetite. (And check out the Cars 2 video game developer diaries I posted earlier this week.)

I think this movie is one I'll take my boys to see in the actual cinema. Cars 2 hits theaters June 24th - see you there!
