Bubble Bread

I love this bread!  Sorta similar to Macaroni Grill's bread that is dipped in olive oil.  And it's perfect for an appetizer for a large crowd.  The little balls of bread break off really easy.


Super simple to make too!  You can use any bread recipe (if you need a good recipe, leave me a comment).  While kneading the dough, mix in some grated cheddar cheese.  Once the dough has risen, roll out the dough, cut it into a bunch of little squares, roll up each square into a ball, and dipped in a bowl of melted butter mixed with some parsley, marjoram, and basil.  Arrange in a pan, let rise again, then bake.

We ate it warm, dipping each bite in a plate of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and pepper.  Delicious!

Pillows

About time I put something else up here.  This is from last year, but I wanted to move the post from my family blog to this one.  These are the pillows I made for our living room.  We have an orange and red theme going on.  I wanted to mix in the orange, without being too powerful.  I think the orange strips add just the right amount of pop!
