Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

1 tsp ground cinnamon

to form a soft dough. Turn out onto a well-floured surface. Knead
until smooth and elastic(about 5 minutes); add enough remaining

hour or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down, and turn out onto a
lightly floured surface. Roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness; cut with a
lightly floured 2 1/2 inch doughnut cutter. Combine doughnut holes
and any remaining scraps of dough; reroll to 1/2 inch thickness and
cut as before. Place doughnuts on baking sheets coated with cooking
spray; brush 2 tablespoons melted margarine over doughnuts. Let rise,
uncovered, in a warm, draft-free place for 40 minutes. Combine 1/2
cup sugar and 1 teaspoon in a large zip-top heavy-duty plastic bag,
and set aside. Bake doughnuts at 425 degrees for 8 minutes or until
golden. Immediately brush remaining 2 tablespoons melted margarine
over baked doughnuts; add doughnuts to plastic bag. Seal the bag and
shake to coat. Yield: 3 dozen doughnuts
