Sun Dried Tomato Bread

Now this bread I have made many times.  Its SO good!  Usually when I make it, I shape it more in a long loaf.  But today i decided to make it in an oval shape because that's what the recipe says to do.  And I didn't have sun dried tomatoes packed in oil (which a tbs of it is needed) so the bread should have a red tint to it.  This time I had to use a tbs of evoo so it's the usual tan/bread color.  But besides that, the bread is very good although not as airy as it is when I shape it in a long loaf.  I will be making this again but make it how I usually do.  I also make a garlic infused evoo with basil to dip this in - so yummy!

Whipped Cream Filled Puff Pastries






I decided to make these because they seemed pretty easy and I never really made anything like this before.  The recipe was simple to follow also.  I did not make the whipped cream, its cool whip.  After I filled them with the whipped cream, they looked adorable!  The pastry houses the cream so gently, the top of the pastry looks like a little hat!  They were very tasty too, very light and airy and not too sweet.
