Lou's Donuts! Awesome and great 12/28/2009

I grew up in the neighborhood and worked with Lou and his wife. It was a neighborhood dream to reach that age where you would finally work at Lou's. I have thre greatest memory when they were by San Jose Hospital, I'd arrive at work at 6:00A.M. Lou had been there for hours. We would get ready for the day and at8:00 there would be a line around the block. I worked hand in hand with the new owners and am happy they have continued on the San Jose Tradition.
