5 a.m. start and a similar breakfast, sausage
instead of bacon as I recall. Soup for lunch with leftover chicken. One
gigantic pot had rice and the other had noodles. Plus sliced fruit and cookies.
Dinner was an enchilada bake. More egg cracking at night. The team leader asked
me if I was up to making cinnamon rolls; from scratch without a mixer at 8000
feet. Sure, why not. I started the cinnamon rolls after lunch. The roll part of
the recipe called for 70 cups of flour, 30 eggs , 3 pounds of butter, sugar and
yeast. All kneaded by hand. I had help but it was something else. My co-roll
maker had never made cinnamon rolls so we had fun together learning how to need
and shape. After the first rise and assembly into the pans, they are
refrigerated for an overnight rest.
