turkey dinner...rolls

What is a turkey dinner without the bread. I usually cheap on this aspect of the meal and get brown and serve rolls, it is way easier than making them from scratch. In which I can`t seem to do just yet, oooohhhh the perfect roll , that looks just like the store bought. Ohhh how I love this modern convenience. With all of the other baking and cooking that is done, this makes it soo much handy and easy , just put in the oven while towards the end of all the cooking and baking at least 10 -15 minutes and wha-lol you have rolls for the feast of turkey.

I hope everyone out there in blogland has a wonderfulll Turkey day, this is a week in advance or rather 5 days in advance. And please don`t stuff yourselves, just the turkey, lol.
