Swiss Cheese and Ham Plaited Bread

Hello! I have a huge backlog of pictures to post but I have been incredibly lazy (and also having a tiny bit of a social life) , but since it's the weekend I thought some baking photos would be a good post to put up since maybe someone will be inspired to bake this weekend with the extra time off! Anyway, everyone loves ham and cheese bread; it's a crowd pleaser and it's super easy to bake! The plaits give it a little bit of an extra special sumthin' sumthin' to please the eyes so you can show off to your colleagues/classmates/friends again on Monday. ;p

 I had some extra dough left over (because I didn't buy enough ham and cheese to make another loaf) so I just made plain little buns with them. I adapted this recipe from the Taste of Home website (link here) but the loaves look 100x better here because I was pretty clumsy with the braiding.
I didn't really feel like posting the recipe because the one on the website is much more comprehensive and I took a lot of shortcuts (no dill or mustard). The only thing that I added to this recipe was that I added some dried rosemary (about two tsps) and sprinkled some cheese five minutes before the bread would have been totally done. Anyway, hope you guys are inspired to make something this week, and even if you're not hope you go out to try something nice to eat! Okay back to my crochet work now byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
