Personal Notes:
We cherished our visits with Granny. The boys were always treated with warm doughnuts as they arrived home from school. Her title in our house was The Doighnut Maker. Try as I may I never could quite measure up to hers. Francis says, " the recipe went to heaven with the doughnut maker".
