Poor Alex. I grew up with hot Krispy Kreme donuts all the time. 
There are stories my father use to tell about how his mother worked 
at the local Krispy Kreme with her sister who's husband owned the 
local store. It's even said that true Mobilians are known because 
the lady at Krispy Kreme swears under her breath at them when they 
go to the Krispy Kreme at 2 am to order hot donuts on the way home 
from a Mardi Gras ball. I always knew that my parents picked up 
donuts after every ball they attended for us the next morning (and 
if we were still up, we got hot donuts) but until recently, I didn't 
know how true that statement was. I have found that the Krispy Kreme 
lady is really there at 2 am post-ball when only a hot donut and the 
hot chocolate is the only thing that will do. 

So go find a Krispy Kreme, they are worth it. (www.krispykreme.com)

Kreme money, which is why this thread amused me so much)
