There is actually a bit more to it than that. The roots of Donut Day (first Friday in June) go all the way back to World War I, when The Salvation Army's "Donut Lassies" served these sweet treats to soldiers. Created by The Salvation Army in 1938, the first Donut Day was a fund raiser during the Great Depression.

Thanks for the timely history lesson. Now all i need to do is figure
out where to go line up for free donuts on June 6th. ;)

Title: Officer Krupke's Donuts

I looked this up on recipesource.com where it is titled Grandma's
Donuts.

But Grandma! What big donuts you have!

Use your Bing search engine to fine your nearest Sally-Anne location and
check their web presence. Chances are they will have a "friend-raiser"
event featuring catered/prepared food and speeches ... as well as donuts.

Also both of my local Salvaton ArmyvThrift stores feature coffee and
crullers from time to time.

Title: Turkey a La King
Categories: Poultry, Mushrooms, Vegetables, Wine
Yield: 4 servings

6 tb Unsalted butter
2 tb All-purpose flour
1 3/4 c Turkey or chicken stock
2 c Sliced mushrooms
1 1/2 c Chopped cooked turkey
1/2 c Heavy cream
1 c Frozen peas
2 tb Dry sherry
Salt & fresh ground pepper
Fine chopped parsley;
- garnish

Make a roux. In a small saucepan set over medium heat,
melt 4 tablespoons of the butter. When it begins to
foam, sprinkle the flour over it, and whisk to combine,
then continue whisking until it begins to turn the color
of straw, approximately 7-10 minutes.

Slowly add 1 cup of the turkey stock to this mixture,
and stir to combine. Add more stock to thin the sauce.
Keep warm.

Set a large saute pan over medium-high heat, and add to
it the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. When it begins
to foam, add the mushrooms, and cook, until the
mushrooms have released their moisture and begun to get
glossy and soft, approximately 7-10 minutes. Add the
turkey, then the warm sauce and cream, and stir to
combine. Add the peas, then cook, stirring occasionally,
until the mixture is hot and has thickened slightly,
approximately 7-10 minutes.

Stir in the sherry, adjust seasonings and serve over
biscuits or toast, rice or buttered noodles, garnished
with the parsley.

Title: Mr. Breakfast's Biscuits
Categories: Five, Breads, Dairy
Yield: 10 Servings

8 tb Unsalted butter; cold
2 tb Shortening; cold *
3 c Unbleached self-rising flour
1 1/2 c Buttermilk; cold
Extra slivers of butter or
- cream for moistening and
- brushing

* Lard works, too. - UDD

Adjust oven rack to middle position and set oven @
450?F/230?C.

Cut shortening and butter into dry ingredients with a
pastry cutter, or two forks, until it looks like coarse
meal. Return bowl to the freezer or refrigerator if butter
becomes warm.

Stir in milk with a large fork or rubber spatula. Once
dough starts to clump, bring it into a ball with your
hands, pressing it into bottom of bowl to pick up scraps.
If dough doesn't come together, sprinkle in a little more
milk, and continue pressing on scraps until they
incorporate.

On a lightly floured surface, press dough into a rough
square, then roll out into a about 3/4 in thick. Try to
handle as little as possible and mix just enough to bring
the dough together.

Roll dough out.

Use a 2" biscuit cutter to cut dough into rounds and place
about a 1/2" together in a cake pan or 1" apart on baking
sheet. How far apart you bake them gives you a different
kind of edge, so experiment. I like my edges soft so I put
them pretty close together and they end up touching each
other when finished baking.

Place a small sliver of butter on the top of each biscuit
or brush the tops with melted butter or cream.

Bake until golden brown 12-15 minutes.

NOTE: If you can't get self-rising flour, use 4 teaspoons
baking powder and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons salt. You can also
use regular milk, if necessary, but add it slowly because
the amount may be less. These go really well with sausage
or tomato gravy.
