It's that time of the year... oh! wait... it's always that time of the year when I am at home with my sister! Baking cookies is something we both share a passion for doing.

a winter sky
Yesterday we spent some time taking photos on the beach!
Not only was it 62 degrees... the sky was unreal.
Check back later for our 2012 New Years card!

Sweet Rolls
The other night after dinner we decided to make homemade cinnamon rolls!
The first step (and most important!) was mixing together the bread dough. This included yeast, that we had been feeding throughout the week, flour, butter, and other goodies. After 6 hours the dough was ready to be rolled and sliced. We rolled all of the dough out on the kitchen counter and spread a layer of butter, cinnamon, and sugar on the dough. The next step was rolling the dough into one long roll! We sliced the roll into 15 little pieces and popped them into the oven.
For an even sweeter roll we mixed together cream, butter, and powdered sugar for a glaze.
Hot sweet rolls, the perfect after dinner treat!
