Mexican Buns

Today, JT and I tried making Mexican buns together. At first, he was very busy playing his toys and was not interested in making bread. After all, he has missed his toys for a week when we were out on vacation. So, I followed the new recipe and tried to make the Hong Kong style Mexican buns. They looked good.

After I finished shaping a couple buns, JT reminded me about making a caterpillar bun for him.

So, I quickly shaped one for him. He was so exicted to see a caterpillar that he wanted to make a ladybug for himself.

So, off he went to wash his hands. He put many raisins on the dough to make the spots for the ladybug. It is still a little hard for him to shape the dough with his small hands. But he was very happy to see his own bun when it came out of the oven.
