Halloween memories

By Tanya Pike

On trick-or-treat night last week I was driving down the street of a modest neighborhood in town. The mostly ranch style houses were festive with Halloween decorations. Most were gently scary - grinning pumpkins, orange blinking lights, ghosts made from bedsheets swaying in the trees. The kids were just beginning to emerge from their houses, bags at the ready to haul home their candy stash.

Parmesan Rolls

Parmesan Rolls
From Paula Scott

This is definitely a family favorite, especially at Thanksgiving. There are never enough. Because of the oil and cheese, the dough is easy to handle.

2 1/2 tsp instant yeast
3 1/2 to 4 cups flour (all purpose or bread flour)
2 tsp salt
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese (I've used everything from the Kraft can to cheddar and Asiago)
2 Tbl olive oil
1 1/2 cups warm water
