Well, by the end I was exhausted and let the last rise go waaaaaaaaaaaay too long. And the second batch to go in the oven had to wait even longer.
When they came out I just about cried.
Ken tried to comfort me not knowing that they were not supposed to be round or flat or fluffy or have weird drips all over them. They are supposed to be oval and crusty and hearty! Anywho, I sent some to school with him and gave the rest away. Instead of trying the recipe again I went to Siegfried's Delicatessen in SLC. It was awesome had what I needed and just about anything German I could think of.
I bought the rolls and went on my way no worse off for buying them.
P.S. This is what the rolls were supposed to look like! Thanks, Siegfried!

Aww! I'm sorry!
I still think yeast is really hard to work with. I bake bread fairly often and I still can't quite get things to work out exactly how I want, even if it's the same recipe over and over. Yeast is a mystery to me. I'm sure it still tasted like yummy bread, no matter how fluffy it was, though- right? :)
And yet, you put forth a valiant, valiant effort!
I don't know anything about the kind of bread you were trying to make, but I think yours look SO tasty! If I had the two sitting in front of me, I'd pick the big round fluffy ones. :^)
