Yes, I agree with you. Parents should make memories like this with their kids...and grandkids if they live close enough to do it.

My job was watching the cooking oil in the pot and turning the doughnuts at just the right time. Then I took them out of the oil and put them in a brown paper bag with sugar and shook the bag to coat the doughnuts with sugar. Then I put them on brown paper grocery bags to soak up some of the oil. BOY those doughnuts were sooooo good while still hot. YUM. Not quite the same as your doughnuts; but they were good...and I'm positive yours are too!! 5/08/12 2231

I use to use that to cut out my biscuits, but a can cut with one of those can openers works much better. My Mom never had one of these can openers. LOL!!

It brings back many memories for me also.I think more parents should create memories like this with their children or families. My BIL & SIL were here last week & he wanted me to make some of these. He had seen them on the internet. Of course, my neighbor(4 miles away)helps me out sometimes & I made them some also. We were knee deep in doughnuts & before it was over, all 4 of us were into it. Hubby should have been sitting down. He just got home from hospital for having back surgery & a stroke. He didn't do anything but straw-boss on the dipping process (that's usually his job. He enjoyed that! LOL!!Another memory made!

Is that can in the back the open can you used to cut them? I was looking at the cutters on Amazon.com.. and I thought to myself... I've been baking for so many years, without special cutters (except for fancy shaped cookie cutters), using glasses, open cans, and so on... why would I need a fancy set of expensive cutters?
So now, if you were able to make 150 incredible looking doughnuts, with an open can... so can I! LOL
