Cinnamon Rolls, Part 1

So, I picked up How to Cook Everything. Been wanting it a long time.

I like it.

This morning I headed up at about 6am to make the dough for cinnamon rolls. The dough is now rising in the warmed oven. At about 8:30am, I will head up and check it out. It's not perfect, but that's okay.

I would love to make more bread, as my folks love bread. I am not going to tackle the two or three loaves of sliced bread they go through each week, but dinner rolls and french breads and italian breads and breakfast breads and other yeasty goodness...that, I want to do. I have Mom's mixer. (I have mine, too, but it's still sitting in the living room where it was put in October.)

So, that dough is rising. I compromised with myself last night - if I went to bed at 10pm, I would get up early. I did, that's cool.

I intend to go grocery shopping today, so I am heading off to make some plans.

I like shopping each day to get fresh ingredients to eat.
