Since the New Year, I’ve been in a homebody, domestic mode-cleaning, organizing, cooking…and baking.  That’s something I have a love/hate relationship with.  Maybe it’s the precise nature of baking, having to accurately measure out the ingredients, or my low expectations that come through, but my results when I bake have been less than stellar.  Never-the-less, I was craving a donut this morning, but did not want to go out to the store in the cold rain.  After an internet search, I found RetroDinnerDiva’s recipe for 20-minute donut holes from scratch.  Just what I was looking for.  I had all the ingredients, the recipe didn’t seem complicated, so I went right to it.  Well, as promised, they were easy and they were quick and they were perfect.  I sprinkled some with cinnamon sugar and some in confectioners sugar, but they were tasty plain too.  Thanks Stephanie at http://www.retrodinnerdiva.wordpress.com.  Check out her blog for some great recipes, tips and humor.  A cup of tea and these little bites (not too many) cheered me up on such a dreary day!
