Mini Poppy Seed Onion Rolls (and Onion Twist Bread)

We bought onions at Costco. So I decided to make carmelized onions out of some of them, as well as an onion twist bread. (The bread dough was going to make two large loaves, so I decided to make some Mini Poppy Seed Onion Rolls for social hour out of half of the bread.)

Vanilla Rainbow Cake Roll

Emily asked me if I would bake Garsha a birthday cake. I agreed, and then asked her what flavor cake and icing Garsha would like, suggesting some options. Emily told me that Garsha really preferred vanilla cake - she does not like chocolate cake.

Wait - what? Vanilla cake?

I don't believe I have ever baked a vanilla birthday cake - my family goes for chocolate cake, with various frosting flavors. Sometimes they go for pie, but never vanilla cake. So I started looking for vanilla cake recipes, and I saw a rainbow cake roll that needed to be tried. So I did.

Spaghetti Lasagna

I wanted to try one of those sheet pan recipes I'd been seeing on the Internet. I had feta and green beans, so made Greek Sheet Pan Chicken.
