before the end of 2010

I want to reflect on this year and think about the opportunities to come in 2011.  But before I do that, I needed to try a go at making homemade cinnamon buns.  Who doesn't like that can of buns with icing?? When Whole Foods recently started selling a "natural" brand of cinnamon buns in a can in their cold isle, I forgot all about my 'health' diet and brought them home for breakfast.  They are delicious...but even the whole foods version still has a lot of crap in it.

So...I wanted to try making my own.  Yes, there is sugar, but at least, there is not crap that has names we don't like and I made them half whole grain...so a tiny bit healthier.

After a few more minutes in the oven, I will soon enjoy the rest of 2010 with a nice cup of tea and homemade cinnamon buns.  I used the recipe posted on 101 Cookbooks.  As suggested by this recipe, there is a whole batch in my freezer for later.  So maybe if a few of those family members who live far away in RI will come around to a visit Montclair soon, they will get to enjoy the homemade goodness.  






But, hurry, because Mike and I may thaw these babies out real soon...
