Bread may not like me, but I adore it

Somehow I always forget how much I love to bake until I find myself needing to bake something.  I’m not sure why I forget.  I blame my brain. 

At the moment the smell of heaven is wafting through the house.  We’re going to my in-laws later today for Mother’s Day/father-in-law’s birthday.   My mother-in-law asked if us kids would bring the sides and I volunteered to bring rolls. 

There’s this recipe on Pinterest for copycat Texas Roadhouse rolls.  If you’ve never eaten there, you’ve not experienced the delight that is their rolls.  This recipe seemed fairly easy, so I figured I’d give it a try. 

I just pulled them out of the oven, and while they’d win no awards from Paul Hollywood for consistency, for my first try I’m quite pleased.

I just tried one of the tiny ones and OH MY GLOB!!!!! So nummy! Definitely going to be making this recipe again.

If you want to try it, here’s the link to the recipe: https://thecozycook.com/copycat-texas-roadhouse-rolls/

Sleepy Malia

I guess I was more stressed out by this last week than I though I was.  I remember waking up this morning, but I had a rough night with my stomach, and wasn’t feeling quite ready to get up.

I went back to sleep.  I dreamed that I was back being a pastor’s kid.  The church was on fire, and we were trying to get things out of the building. (Clearly this dream has no deeper meanings 😅).

I woke to Tom shaking me awake. At first I thought it was just a few hours later. Turns out it was 5:30 pm. I slept the whole day away. I haven’t done that in a super long time. And now it’s almost 11 pm, and my body is torn. Physically I’m still exhausted, but mentally my brain is now wide awake. So, I guess I’ll go do some laundry to pass the time.
