It’s fall, and I’ve got apples on my mind: apple pie, apple cider, cider doughnuts, basically anything apple. I was really in the mood to make apple something, but I was also in the mood to make bread or something yeasty. I thought about chop chop bread, but quickly thought of good old fashioned cinnamon rolls, and began to taste them as soon as the thought entered my mind. I was going to make ...

Old Fashioned Mini Glazed Yeast Doughnuts
What do you do when you’re watching a tense election and have nervous energy to burn? Make old fashioned mini glazed yeast doughnuts! I can’t think of a time when I’m not in the mood for doughnuts.

Quick Small Batch Cinnamon Rolls
The other day I was in the mood for something sweet. Actually I was in the mood for cinnamon rolls, but didn’t want to go through the hassle of making them.
