Place warm water in bowl. Add dry yeast, stirring
to dissolve.
Stir in lukewarm milk, sugar, salt, eggs,
shortening, and HALF of the flour. Keep dough as
soft as possible, almost sticky.
Mix with a spoon, or you can use a mixer, until
smooth. Add enough remaining flour to handle
easily, mix with hand. Turn onto lightly floured
board; knead until smooth and elastic (about 5
minutes). Round up in greased bowl, greased side
up. Cover with damp cloth. Let rise in warm
place (85 degrees) until double (about 1 1/2
hours). Punch down; let rise again until almost
double.
Divide in 2 or 3 parts depending on how large a
loaf you want to make. Spread filling on dough
(not quite to edges) and roll up. Pinch ends
together. Put smooth side up in baking pan or you
can put 2 loaves on a cookie sheet. Bake 325
degrees for 40-45 minutes or until golden brown
