Lickable Rolls
Cinnamon Rolls, People!
We successfully baking FROM SCRATCH in our new house tonight. Thanks Ree. I cut the recipe down to size but dang, we are swimming in homemade cinnamon buns over here people! So in honor of the occassion, I documented the process, for you non-believers who didn't think I could cook....
We successfully butter up big time! Princess wrote her name in butter on the first batch!
The butter smells brought The Man out of hibernation. He even assisted!
And then he took over. He said my rectangular dough wasn't the proper shape. However, we did manage to create "heaven on earth" at my house tonight.
Taking one pan over to the plumbers house in the morning. Betting these babies will get my gas line for my dryer put in asap!
Warning: the mess after this is impressive. Maybe I should just leave it and move again!
WELL DONE on making the cinnamon rolls. Aren't they divine?! I didn't cut the recipe in half....I made the whole thing and put most in the freezer. That way I can pull out the big guns when builder guys and workmen start telling me it's gonna take 6 weeks to finish a project off. I mean, hey, the tiler guy finished off the floors in 5 days --- 9 days less than his original quote. Those rolls totally melt hardened plumber-cracked builder's hearts.
As your mother, I am so proud of all of you guys. They look great!!!! I can almost smell them and the pics of THE MAn are great. Such a big manly man baking. That just warms my heart. The girls I know so enjoyed helping and I am sure eating them. Thinking of us when you guys eat some this morning.

oh - I know whatcha mean about the after-mess. My kitchen was littered with flour - e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e. - but it was worth it.
