Ok-so we all have a Nemesis. Mine for the last week has been these orange rolls. I have made them 100 times and they are always beautiful. so here I am making them for the THIRD time-mostly because I wasn't concentrating the first two times and did something really stupid-like putting them in the COLD oven to proof (that is the term for getting them to rise the second time in the container they will Eb cooked in)-only to turn the oven on for something else-forgetting they were in there. disaster. That was the second attempt.
today is the third.
Why you ask would I do this to myself three times? Well, for one thing-anyone who knows me knows I am very stubborn. so that is the first reason, but the second and more important reason is that my mom loves them and I don't want her making them for thanksgiving-so I am fedexing them to her tomorrow (provided they don't have another disaster) so she can pop them in the freezer and then just pop them in the oven for thanksgiving.
I'll photograph them when they are done tonight-I hope. Otherwise I have just really set myself up huh? the cooking Diva that can't cook! :).

Ms. Judy. I am amazed and overwhelmed at the volume you produce. Oh My God! How the hell do you bake sooooooooooooooo many cookies, girl???
ReplyDeleteAmazed and in awe. I will sit back and see what I can learn by reading your blog and admiring your photographs. Big hugs, Elaine
Any chance one of the previous attempts turned out tasty just not looking pretty? I'll take those... ;]
ReplyDeleteyou are so on-they taste very good-but are not light and fluffy.
