Their business has increased so much that they are making donuts around the clock now, so they keep the drive-through window open all night long. As it happens, their building is a former liquor store already equipped with a drive-through window. So they had the perfect set-up already in place.Genevieve Netzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08004780820713448880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20637018.post-9373361710750405032009-05-30T07:55:50.317-05:002009-05-30T07:55:50.317-05:00A new donut shop has opened in Gretna, Nebraska, w...A new donut shop has opened in Gretna, Nebraska, where I live part of the time. Their donuts are fresh and tasty. Before they opened, all we had for donuts here were the greasy, soggy ones from a couple of convenience store/gas stations.<br /><br />The trouble is, the new donut shop closes at noon. I like a pastry in the evening once in a while. How late does the Whistlestop stay open?ptghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15079577478993790527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20637018.post-12294285539114608212009-05-28T23:08:49.812-05:002009-05-28T23:08:49.812-05:00They have lots of flavors of filled ones.

...An amusing comment from a local reader by e-mail <br /><br />When my car crosses the tracks on 9th Street, my tires suddenly tug to the right…. And it’s all I can do to steer left. Most times the car Wins! Best donuts I eaten in years. Reminds me of Don’s Donut Shop that used to be in Clarksville, almost directly across from Wal Mart on Ft Campbell Blvd. They have been gone a long time now. Next time you get the urge, try their bear claws or a chocolate covered (German) creamed fill Bismarck. You’ll see how quick your “car” learns where to turn.Genevieve Netzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08004780820713448880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20637018.post-20042703542403115132009-05-28T22:55:32.033-05:002009-05-28T22:55:32.033-05:00That box of donuts didn't last long around here, L...That box of donuts didn't last long around here, Lisa. We all would have enjoyed a few more of them. I would have eaten one on the way home, except that the girl told me they were still hot and the glaze was still sticky.Genevieve Netzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08004780820713448880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20637018.post-48424183098821225232009-05-28T20:57:01.671-05:002009-05-28T20:57:01.671-05:00They are good!

Now I have to check it out on my way home! The only problem will the empty box when I get home! I can eat 2 or 3 and still be hungry! Do you ever get really full when you eat donuts?Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02303986703217546574noreply@blogger.com
