Does anyone help you cook your holiday meal? 

Perfect food is my passion, probably passed down to me since I am mostly German.  Everything has to be just right down to the smallest detail and that includes the bread.  There is no rule here that anything has to be an ethnic meal, it just has to be very, very good.  I always insist on doing everything myself.

Our local Sam’s Club has great bakery style breads, and this year we decided on sour dough.  That was simple enough to foil wrap and reheat to a crispy crust when the rest of the meal was just about finished baking.  It was so much better than the common bake and serve variety in a plastic package that the grocery stores sell.

I really miss the home made breads my mother and grandmother always used to make.  My sister uses Rhodes Bread that can be found in the freezer section of most groceries around here.  Her holiday dinners have to be perfect too, and these were really good.

This really sounds like a project I could get a family member (like Hubs) to do ahead of time and reheat.  What is really neat is the different shapes you can make according to the holiday.  Armed with a batch of dough and scissors, I can imagine Valentine hearts, little Christmas trees, or even bunny shapes for Easter.

Watch the video on how to make these cute turkey rolls.  It is not difficult at all.  You really would not need to add any extra ingredients to the dough.
