Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 In bowl of stand mixer combine water and yeast. Dip spoon into honey, and use to stir water/yeast mixture until honey dissolves off spoon. Set mixture aside for ten minutes until foamy. Add remaining honey, eggs, milk, instant potatoes, and bread flour. Knead with dough hook at low speed until dough is smooth and elastic, about 4 minutes. Add salt and butter and continue kneading until butter and salt are completely incorporated, about 2 minutes longer. 2 Drizzle small amount of olive oil into zipper-lock bag. Form dough into ball (it will be very soft) and put it into bag, making sure that it's coated with oil all over. Put bag in refrigerator overnight. 3 The next morning, remove bag from refrigerator and lightly knead while still in bag, to knock out air. You may need to open bag to let air out; reseal it. Let bag sit out until it has come to room temperature, about 2 hours. 4 Adjust oven racks to upper middle and lower middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Mix cinnamon and sugar in a flat rimmed plate or pie pan. Flour work surface. Remove dough from bag and knead briefly. Divide dough into 16 roughly equal pieces. Roll each piece into a rope about 6 inches long, flouring work surface only as much as needed to keep the dough from sticking. You want the finished ropes to be a little sticky. 5 Roll each rope in sugar/cinnamon mixture to coat (they will tend to shrink up as you do this, don't worry about it), then tie each rope into a knot and place on prepared baking sheet. When all knots are formed, sprinkle any remaining sugar/cinnamon mixture on top of them, adding extra cinnamon/sugar, if deisred). 6 Cover pans with plastic wrap and set aside to rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. Remove plastic wrap and bake until nicely browned, about 25 minutes. Remove to cooling rack to cool or serve immediately.

Food Joke

Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything; tutors, flash cards, special learning centers, in short, everything they could think of. Finally in a last ditch effort, they took Tommy down and enrolled him in the local Catholic School. After the first day, little Tommy comes home with a very serious look on his face. He doesn't kiss his mother hello. Instead, he goes straight to his room & starts studying. Books & papers are spread out all over the room and little Tommy is hard at work. His mother is amazed. She calls him down to dinner and to her shock, the minute he is done he marches back to his room without a word and in no time he is back hitting the books as hard as before. This goes on for sometime, day after day while the mother tries to understand what made all the difference. Finally, little Tommy brings home his report card. He quietly lays it on the table and goes up to his room and hits the books. With great trepidation, his mom looks at it and to her surprise, little Tommy got an A in math. She can no longer hold her curiosity. She goes to his room and says: "Son, what was it? Was it the nuns?" Little Tommy looks at her and shakes his head "No". "Well then", she replies, "was it the books, the discipline, the structure, the uniforms, WHAT was it?". Little Tommy looks at her and says, "Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they weren't fooling around.
