This week we made two recipes that are "copycats" of those found at Romano's Macaroni Grill. My mom had made the Rosemary Bread before, and I love it, but I was nervous about it because of the pickiness of yeast. I was afraid I would end up with Rosemary Hockey Pucks. It was also the first time using my mixer with the dough hooks.
