A little taste of Disney...


Two summers ago Chad and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary at my favorite place in the world - Walt Disney World! We stayed at the beautiful Polynesian Resort which was one of my favorite hotels there yet! We at at the Kona Cafe one evening and their bread was amazing! I found the recipe on Pinterest and in honor of Jack turning one month today I wanted to make a special treat for the family! It turned out wonderful - didn't rise like I wanted it to... but tasted great!
