DONUTS - "GRANDMA WALKERS" A PLAIN OLD DELICIOUS RECIPE.
My maternal grandma Joan Walker, ( see picture)taught me how to make these when I a little girl!... 1943 ? I would have to take a streetcar ( Western Ave.) West. Across the middle of Chicago,Ill. to Evanston, Ill. Then walk at the end of the line -maybe a mile to Grandmas. Toke maybe 2-3 hrs each way! It was worth it!!...
