Big Momma's Buns

OK now, get your mind out of the gutter. I don't mean those buns, I mean these buns ---->


















I have joined a group called Daring Bakers. Each month the DBers send out a baking challenge. Everyone involved must bake the recipe as is, with only the preapproved substitutions. Then we all post the results on our blogs as well as the DB blog which is super duper top secret.




That's right folks, Members Only!

September's challenge was cinnamon rolls. They turned out quite good and they were very easy. I was hoping for a challenge but then realized it was probably better that my first attempt wasn't something too complicated. If you would like a recipe or a dozen, just let me know. For more information on Daring Bakers and to see the blog roll, please click here visit http://daringbakersblogroll.blogspot.com/.

If you would like the recipe, you can find it at my new friend Pip in the City's blog at http://pipinthecity.wordpress.com/.

Congrats on your first challenge! I'm glad the dough was more manageable for you the second time around. I hate working with sticky dough.

Sorry to hear about your bad day, though. I'm glad it got better. I often cook and bake to lift me up, too.
