Sugar and Spice And A Little Pink Too

Happy Pink Saturday. It's that time again, when we share the pink things that make us smile. For more pink stop by and see Beverly at How Sweet The Sound .

What are little boys made of?

Snips and snails, and puppy dogs tails

That's what little boys are made of !

What are little girls made of?

Sugar and spice and all things nice (and a little pink too)

That's what little girls are made of!

This is a simple jumper I made for Baby Girl. I love it because it is so simple and easy for little ones to move around in and has just the right amount of swing to it. I made loads of these for Big Sis when she was little too.

Big Sis is so pretty in pink.

Little Guy is all boy. You usually find him running, and jumping, sword in hand (well stick anyway). All I know is I sure do love snips and snails and puppy dog tails!!

Fancy That, all pink little girls or snips and snails little boy I can't help but love them!

Happy Pink Valentines Day!!

Happy Pink Saturday, and Valentine's Day too! I hope everyone out there in blog land is having a Perfectly Pink Valentines Day. This morning there were Valentine goodies to be had by all at our house. Even the baby had a piece of chocolate!

For breakfast we had Chocolate French Toast on pink plates, with pink Strawberry Milk. What a fun way to start the day!

For more Pink be sure to stop by a visit Beverly at How Sweet The Sound.

Fancy That, even rough and tumble boys like pink...if it's in the form of something yummy.

Refrigerator Rolls

This weekend we celebrated my Dad's Birthday. On the Menu was: salad, green beans, chicken and noodles, and yummy warm fresh from the oven yeast rolls. I thought I would share the recipe for the yeast rolls because they are so easy and best of all the dough can be kept in the fridge for a couple of days if you don't need to use it all.



I really wanted to take a picture of the rolls, but they were gobbled up so fast that I didn't have time to take a picture. So I took a picture of the "elephant ears" that I made with the dough the morning after the party.


Refrigerator Rolls

2 pkgs yeast

2 C warm water

1/2 c sugar

1 egg

1/4 C butter

6 1/2-7 C flour

2 t salt

Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add sugar, salt and 1/2 of the flower. Beat well. Add egg and melted butter. Gradually add remaining flour beat until smooth (or knead until smooth). Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap in a greased bowl. Place in refrigerator until ready to use. (I don't really know how long it could be kept, we always use it in a couple of days)

When you are ready to make rolls, role dough out and cut with a cutter or shape them with your hands and let rise for 2 hours.

Of course you can also make them into cinnamon rolls and let them rise for 2 hours.

OR you could make Elephant Ears.

Roll a portion of dough out into a circle (you should roll the dough thin). Cut the dough in to triangles (I guess that's where the name elephant ears comes from). Place the dough into hot oil ( I put just enough oil to float the dough in the pan). Fry until golden brown remove and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

Fancy That, one recipe so many yummy options.
