My grandmother's bread recipe:

2 cakes dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup warm water

Mix above; let stand 45 minutes.

2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup shortening
2 cups lukewarm water
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup sugar
8 cups flour

Add above; mix and knead for ten minutes.
Let rise until doubled in bulk.
Put in bread pan (for bread) or muffin pan (for rolls).
Bake at 350--roughly a half-hour for rolls, an hour for bread.
