{story below}
Here's the original Pigs-in-a-blanket recipee without the pigs:
1 package yeast (that's 2 1/4 tsp for all you jar users)
1/3 cup sugar AND 1tsp sugar for yeast
2/3 cups milk (110-115 degrees)
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbs plus 2tsp melted shortening
1 tsp salt
3-2/3 cup flour (really just as much as you need to make dough that is easy to handle)
