Their donuts are good I like the variety of flavors but nothing too special. However, the minis with raspberry filling are the best things ever. I would eat them everyday if I could. Their coffee is good but average, I wish it was a little stronger. The energizers are a nice addition to the menu, the tropical one was a nice flavor. The service could be much better.

I think one of the positives has been a renewed emphasis on discovering and really supporting local. One of my discoveries during this time has been Monastery Baked Goods, a ministry of the Sisters of St. Benedict of Ferdinand, Indiana offering baked goods that are sold in support of the ministries and mission of the Sisters of St. Benedict. If you've never been to the Ferdinand, Indiana area I regard it as a rather holy place. There's simply a sacred feeling being there and I've come across in my life a couple of the Sisters of St. Benedict including one teacher who was key in finding out how I learn best. She almost single-handedly guided me as I went from a C+ student in high school to a college valedictorian. So, when I discovered this way I could have tasty treats and support the Sisters of St. Benedict I was all about it! Monastery Baked Goods began as an outreach by the Sisters during Christkindlmarkt, an annual German festival held in Ferdinand. They started making and selling springerles, a German cookie. From there, they experimented and began making the almond-based almerles. They then began offering a cookie in honor of the 12th century mystic St. Hildegard. Simply Divine Bakery was formed, but in 2015 the name changed to Monastery Baked Goods as a way to truly identify a relationship with their monastery. They have an online gift shop that includes bourbon-soaked fruitcake, springerles, Hildegard cookies, St. Hildegard Crunch Mix, Hildegard mini-cookies, Simply Lemon cookies (these are wonderful), gingersnap cookies (these are wonderful), chocolate shortbread cookies, shortbread cookies, buttermint with chocolate cookies, prayerful pretzels (these are awesome), and a bunch of other options. They also offer gluten-free options and recently introduced mint julep cookies. They offer bundles and specialty options. They offer their products wholesale and in Indy you can get them at A Taste of Indiana at 65th and Binford. Prices vary, though I've found them incredibly reasonable and, of course, they also support a good cause. While many religious communities continue to suffer in terms of numbers, it seems like the Sisters of St. Benedict continue to do well. The Monastery Baked Goods website is a page on the Sisters website and it's inspiring to see new Sisters commit to monastic life and to see all the ministries of the Sisters of St. Benedict. I'm inspired by this ministry and I love the products. While I don't get to Ferdinand often, it's nice knowing that I can still support the ministry as I live only about 10 minutes from A Taste of Indiana and can pick up my Monastery Baked Goods there.
