Thanksgiving rolls in Seattle?

Due to an injury to my left hand which prevents me from making my traditional Thanksgiving rolls, I'm seeking to purchase some ready-made. I prefer the softer variety for this meal. Any suggestions?

    Thank you everyone for your thoughtful suggestions. I ended up making Rhodes dinner rolls - the frozen kind you let raise then bake. Much to my chagrin my family preferred these to my homemade ones. Well, that's a couple hours saved next Thanksgiving . . .

      Grand Central Bakery has several kinds of rolls you can order ahead for T-day - parkerhouse, potato, and ones with a more shiny harder crust. Also pies, etc. Several locations.

        I like Macrina's potato rolls. I'd call them soft, but not squishy. I LOVE Ezell's rolls and think they are the perfect type of roll for T-day dinner, but I'm not sure about obtaining large quantities for the holiday.

          The butterflake rolls at Top grocery are pretty good, with more butter than many other brands.

            I always think of Franz Butterflake rolls as the traditional holiday roll, if I'm not baking my own.

              I like the rosemary rolls from Macrina. You can order them in advance from the Sunset Hill Greenmarket in Ballard if that's convenient.
