Crazy Life!

I wanted to update as to what's been going on and leave you with a little "food" idea I stole from Kathie Cooks on pinterest, but upped a little.

So we are lacking a little in cash this year and inspired by a good friend I decided to make most of my kids/neighbors/some extended family's Christmas presents this year.

I've now learned to make soap, I'm working on bath salts and sugar scrubs to go with it for my neighbors, and I may get real crazy and try bath fizzies. Those are mostly for the neighbors and some family.

I've made 2 sets of hand puppets for my little guys, an Old Macdonald set and a nativity set. I've got one more to make that I'm going to try and do like paper dolls, so the person they are for can switch up who the characters are. I've made a handbag for another sister and my big project is the quiet books, thankfully those are almost done because I have so much more to do.

Anyways, for the food. Doesn't this look delish?

Preheat the oven to 350 F. I made roll dough (pretty much the only thing I use my breadmaker for and they come out great every time!), Rhoades would work great for this too, and the lady I stole it from used Grands Biscuits, I prefer the rolls. I had premade meatballs in the freezer, I warmed those up cut them in half (make sure they are precooked), cut up some small pieces of mozzerella and wrapped them up in the dough. Then brush the whole thing with melted butter, sprinkle with granulated garlic and parmesan, bake for 15-17 minutes till they look like this. Enjoy!

  1. Wow! Okay, you need to teach me how to make your puppets and I need your roll dough recipe. I don't have a bread maker; would it work without one?

  2. Anytime you want Lacee, and I'm sure the recipe would you'ld just have to raise it and punch it down yourself.

    1 egg
    1/4 c butter
    3/4 c milk
    1/4 c luke warm water
    1 tsp salt
    3 Tbs sugar
    1 Tbs instant yeast
    3 c bread flour (AP flour is ok too)

    put everything in your mixer execpt the water and yeast, combine those quickly and toss in, mix with dough hook till combined on low, you may need to add a little more flour to get the right consistency. Turn up to medium and knead (using dough hook for a few minutes), let rise, punch, set for 10 minutes then shape and let proof, bake at 350 for 10-14 minutes.
