Printed Billy, they look really good. Time doesn't matter much if one is diddling round in the kitchen anyway. Thank you very much.

These are light and tasty dinner rolls Dale. I usually make at least two loaves of bread and use the rest for rolls. This makes A LOT OF ROLLS, so have lots of butter handy

Lol Billy, I eat butter diligently in an effort to get my weight up. Those rolls sound so good. Thank you again. And the loaves. When you get here I expect you will find a fat rolling little piggie, trying to find her feet.
