dough, doe

Dough or dough is what is mixed together to make some baked goods--
Bread dough has to rise before you bake it.
Mix the dough until it sticks together.
Dough and bread are both slang for money.

Doe or doe ( rhymes with dough ) means a female deer--
You can tell which is the doe because she has no antlers.
A doe and two fawns hopped across the road.

Now that you know that, you can say--
"The doe may eat bread dough out of your hand if you are patient."

Note--a "doughnut" and a "donut" are the same thing--
I would like a cup of coffee and a doughnut, please.
The famous donut shop made "donut" a popular way to spell "doughnut".
