"It looks like a five year old made it."

Last week, I mentioned that I made potato rolls. My favourite thing today is along the same lines. I made just regular buns. I love homemade buns fresh out of the oven. Very enjoyable. I should clarify that when I said I made them, I mean that put them into bun form. My sister made the dough in the breadmaker. I think I did okay. It took me til the 36th bun before I figured out a system that worked and my sister claimed that the first ones looked like they were made by five year olds (or perhaps three year olds, I don't remember) but the point is that they taste good.....Which probably has more to do with my sister's part in the process than in mine. But oh well. I now know how to make buns like a person my age should make them, so woohoo!

Today, I made one of my favourite types of bun from our leftover mashed potatoes. So good. Never mind the fact that I only had leftover mashed potatoes because I measured out the amount I need for the buns. They are called Golden Potato Rolls.

I don't know where my mom got the recipe but I am so happy that she put it in the recipe book she gave me, my sisters, and several of my cousins. From start to finish they take about 3-4 hours because there are a couple of periods where they have to rise but totally worth it. The rolls had big chunks of potatoes in them because apparently yesterday I did not cook the potatoes well enough before I mashed them, but other than that they were pretty good. The recipe asks for all-purpose flour but I usually put in some whole wheat and adjust the recipe accordingly. If anyone want copy of the recipe, let me know and I will post it in the comments.
