You Go Girl!

Amanda learned a new skill. Like any good mother, I want to help my children reach their full potential, even if that means I have to sacrifice my girlish figure to encourage her success. Sometimes it's difficult to be a mom. She may have to make batch after batch, just to ensure she gets it right, but I'll be there for her.
After all, you know what they say:
"Practice makes perfect."
You can do it, Amanda!Last month when Jen was visiting, Sister Willis came over and taught Amanda, Jen and her granddaughter how to make rolls. They made enough for transfers that Monday and had two pans left over to learn how to make cinnamon rolls.
She's done it on her own a few times.
This batch was for her young women's group.
Oh, they smelled GOOD! I got into a little trouble taking pictures-my family thinks I've gone overboard with the pictures/blog thing, so these shots were all stolen.
If I want her to continue, I'll have to stash the camera.
In other words-there won't be anymore Amanda-baking-pictures.....but just keep in mind, if you happen to stop by...chances are there will be something yummy waiting in the kitchen.
