Mix:
2 cups warm water
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt

1 egg
1/4 cup soft shortening
6 and 1/2 cups all purpose flour

Cover, let rise 1 & 1/2 to 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
    Place dough in two greased and floured loaf pans for bread, or make rolls on a greased cookie sheet, and bake until crust is golden brown.
*For a shiny golden crust, beat 1 egg and baste over crust before baking.
*Unrisen dough can be frozen for several months and then taken out to rise and bake, or can be refridgerated overnight and baked in the morning.

From a family friend

                       Cranberry Pound Cake
                                    Difficulty level: 4
Ingredients:
3 cups sugar
2 cups, (4 sticks) softened butter
6 eggs
4 cups flour
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/4 cups dried cranberries

First preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
       Cream sugar and butter; add eggs one at a time and beat well. (with a tabletop mixer) Alternate flour and liquids as you add them. Set mixer aside and fold the cranberries in with a spatula or wooden spoon. Bake in a 10-inch tube/bundt pan for 1 hour and 50 minutes. No, that's not a misprint, this cake takes quite a while to bake.
         Be sure to have an adult help you remove the pan from the oven because it is very heavy. Let cool 10 minutes and dump out into a serving plate. Serve in thin slices with vanilla ice cream.

*it's not necessary to grease or flour the pan before baking.
