Coffee, Doughnuts and a Side Order of Romance
Sugar Good, 49, manages a Dunkin’ donuts store in Ed-mond, Oklahoma. She knew a good man when she saw one ... every morning at 7:15, as he collected his sausage, egg and cheese croissant at her drive-thru.
After a year of friendly commercial exchanges, The New York Times reported, Good finally got up the nerve to hand John Thompson, 45, her business card along with his food and coffee. Two years later, on Oct. 13, Good and Thompson tied the knot at the place that brought them together: the Dunkin’ drive-thru. “We knew we wanted to share it with the Dunkin’ family,” Good said. She stood at her spot in the window and Thompson drove up in his red truck, where former pastor Colby Taylor was waiting for them. Taylor kept the ceremony short, as other customers were lined up behind Thompson, but at the end, Good came outside and Thompson got out of his truck for their first kiss as regulars, friends and family cheered them on. “Our story wasn’t glamour,” Good said, “but it was true romance.”
