For Every Success, There Are 5 Fails

This weekend I made a bunch of things. These glorious cupcakes turned out fabulous. We'll say they are vanilla flavor, though those close to me know otherwise.



I also made fabulous granola with this recipe...


And didn't take any pictures because I burnt it :(. As you can see, I stole this recipe from Pinterest.

After that, I also made some hoagie rolls to go with a crockpot meal I made. Fail. The yeast didn't cooperate and I had to made tortillas so they didn't become bread bricks. Again, no pictures.

But finally!! A success!! I made some whole wheat rolls. They turrned out perfect: dense, extremely moist, and sweet. 

The only changes I made were adding 3/4 c oats (this was totally an experiment, had no idea how it would go. It added a nice natural sweetness and added more whole grains... The reason why I did it.) and 1/4 c self rising flour in place of 1 c all purpose flour. Whole wheat flour gets super dense and crispy, and changing it up with the other grains gave it a great texture.



As always, I could not stop eating the bread as it came out of the oven. CARBS! Yes!! 

The recipe I used can be found here.

Anyway, don't feel bad about failing every once in a while. As long as it's still edible.
