Herbert slumped onto the sofa, remote in hand. "This town council meeting is a joke! They want to pass an amendment to ban garden gnomes!"

Margot, folding laundry nearby, sighed. "Herbert, that's hardly the biggest problem Oakhaven faces. What about the rising town deficit?"

Herbert waved his hand dismissively. "Details, details. Besides, I have a plan. A foolproof plan!"

Margot raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? Is this another one of your..." she paused, searching for the right word, "...experimental ideas?"

"This one's different!" Herbert insisted. "It's about donuts! My new 'Donut-A-Day' business. I'll deliver fresh donuts to every house in town. Guaranteed success!"

Margot pinched the bridge of her nose. "Herbert, that sounds...expensive. And possibly not very healthy."

Brian walked in, skateboard in hand. "Sounds awesome! Can I be your taste tester?"

Herbert grinned. "Of course, son! It's Walker Donuts versus the world!"

The next morning, Herbert's 'Donut-A-Day' business got off to a rocky start. The donuts, left in the sun while he made deliveries, began to attract wasps. By lunchtime, several boxes had already been attacked.

Later that day, Herbert returned home dejected. "It was a disaster," he confessed. "A swarm of wasps caused a mini panic. One lady even yelled at me!"

Margot patted his arm. "Well, at least you tried. But maybe next time, we'll stick to fixing the leaky faucet."

Suddenly, a loud POP echoed from the kitchen. They rushed in to find Brian covered in powdered sugar. A donut had burst, sending a cloud of sweetness into the air.

Brian looked up sheepishly. "Worth it."

Margot and Herbert exchanged a look, then started laughing. Oakhaven, and the Walker family, would survive.
