First Attempt at Homemade Rolls

So it is tradition for my husband and I to bring the "rolls" to Thanksgiving dinner.  This year, that happens to be today.  In the past I have brought a type of biscuit since I have a very good recipe for that.  This year, I wanted to bring a real roll, and so far so good!  I got the recipe from All Recipies and it is called Sweet Dinner Rolls.  A reviewer had said she broke the recipe down into little balls and baked them in a muffin tin to make clover rolls.  I thought that would be good and look at them right before they went into the oven... mmm!  Can't wait to try them!

The Start of the Holiday Decorating

Hello All!

The holidays are my favorite time of year because you can go all out decorating and it only makes your house feel more inviting!  This is the first year that I decided to decorate the table to just be "pretty".  Everyone knows that my kitty is the king of the table, but he is adjusting well. 


The centerpiece greenery has lights woven into it, and I will actually light the candles (maybe).  I made the napkin rings using ornaments and ribbon, and I may have invented my own napkin fold.  I think I might need a set of glass glasses to really make the table feel "set", but for now, the holiday plates and mugs will do!  Enjoy!
