Break time

Turkey is out and smells delicious. The oven is now off until later this evening when I get started with more baking, as soon we will be running out to take care of some errands- like delivering the cookies and brownies to the football players and dropping off today's turkey at the community center.

Switch again

Rolls out - turkey in!

Really ready or not,

rolls are in. ?!?! My fingers are crossed.

???

I am not sure how these rolls are going to turn out. They didn't seem to rise much on the first round or the second- some rising, but not like it should. They may end up being kind of heavy. Oh well . . . Wal-Mart is open all day today and tomorrow if I need to go buy some. (sigh)

Cupcakes out

. . . rolls still on second rise.

Switch!

Brownies are out. Chocolate cupcakes (future turkeys) are in. Rolls ready to be shaped and left to rise some more.

Busy Kitchen

Well, Thanksgiving is upon us and my stove has a booked schedule. Last night I baked Cowboy cookies (delicious! - find recipe here) that will be delivered to football players after practice this evening. Just like the good 'ole days in the high school pep club! Anyway, this morning, I have dough rising to make rolls and while I wait for them to finish rising, I'm mixing up a batch of brownies to toss in the oven. More to follow . . .
