Don't you think it's about time that we create a Family Cookbook? Well, I DO! I've spent some time researching trying to come up with the easiest (free) way to get it going, and I believe this is it. Please post any of your favorite recipes, also any tips -- cooking, household, beauty, whatever -- and any inspirational thoughts (whether your own, or someone else's.) I would LOVE to have pictures to include as well. You could take pictures of the dishes/recipes you are submitting, or even just great pictures (or even below average pictures) of you and your family!

Please label each post with an appropriate label (i.e., salad, dessert, vegetarian, household tip, inspiration, etc.) Go ahead and add labels as needed; and it's ok to have more than one label per recipe/post.

My plan is to take what we assemble here, and put it into book form. I would love to have it ready for our Thanksgiving Extravaganza!

Cinnamon Rolls



4 C scalded milk

½ C warm water

4 Tbsp yeast

2 C sugar

4 eggs

2 cups mashed potatoes

1 C butter, melted with scalded milk

2 tsp salt

12 - 13 C flour

Scald milk and add butter to cool. Dissolve yeast in warm water (if using Saf yeast
Janet doesn’t proof). Add the yeast, sugar, eggs, warm mashed potatoes and salt.
Recipe says to beat in half the flour then add milk and other half of flour. (Janet
alternates a little of each until all mixed together). Let rise until double. Divide in fours
when roll out. Spread melted butter on dough and add cinnamon sugar. Bake at 350
degrees for 15 minutes.

***makes A LOT, so make in a very large bowl***
