I was whining to Hubby that I didn't have a good photo nor post to share, and it felt off for me. I'm so used to writing, posting, and sharing, I am feeling the need to go outside to explore already.
So...
Here is a photo of me in the hospital at my worst I think. Or close to it (after 3 ER visits and the ambulance ride).

Baking up the rolls....old post
Pre-Thanksgiving (while still sick), I used King Flour's recipe for soft white dinner rolls, I substituted home grown potatoes for the instant potato flakes (thanks to some advice from an avid bread baker).
I let the mashed potatoes cool, while the butter came down to room temperature, and took to filing away my last "file" pile.
Using the directions on King Flour's blogpost, I divided them into 16 rolls, and froze them.
How did they turn out? Well, I forgot to take a photo, but they did not rise enough. I'm wondering if I should have thawed them in the fridge the night before vs. the same day we baked them. Anyone have tips on this. I used my dehydrator to help them rise too.
