rolls – Bill Swartwout Photography

Being an old ager provides some extra time to try new things.

I figured, in addition to home gardening, I might enjoy learning to cook. I decided to start with breakfast because that is, as we all know, the most important meal of the day.

The only problem is I mixed up my cookbook with my thesaurus…

…and ended up making synonym rolls.

Poppyseed Loaf is a tasty treat for breakfast but you may need a toothpick

In keeping with the breakfast theme and my entries in the “7 Day Kitchen Macro Images” challenge, I thought it might be time for some food to go with the beverages. We’ve already had tea and coffee and a mimosa so now it’s time for a sweet breakfast loaf, a family favorite Poppy Seed Roll.

Easy to make. Sweet yeast bread is rolled out thin and flat, swirled with a delicious pasty poppy seed filling and rolled up into a loaf and baked. Even easier to eat.

But why the toothpick? Think about it – flavorful but small seeds – just about the right size for lodging among the molars.
