what i did this morning, and you can too.

Grab one of these. Yeah, yeah, yummy preservatives.

Melt some butter in the microwave (this is 1.5 T). Unless you're Katie. Then keep your butter far away from the microwave.

While it melts, go check on your new obsession, eBay auctions (eeeeeeee!!!).

After you unroll your preservative-laden crescent rolls, slather them with melted butter.

Then sprinkle with cinnamon. Like, a LOT of cinnamon.

Look forlornly at your broken sugar thingie. Oh, poor sugar... thingie.

Sprinkle sugar over the cinnamon, then drizzle the rest of the melted butter on top of that. And you're done! Bon appetit!

Okay, not really. Roll up the little bundles of buttery goodness. Grab some floss (NOT mint flavored, because eeewww), and use that to slice the dough.

Lay them in a baking dish (I probably could have gotten a few more out of this but the first couple were really thick). Bake according to package directions. Then keep baking because they'll still be raw in the middle.

Mmm. Drizzle with a glaze that you whipped up but didn't take a picture of (milk, powdered sugar, and a splash of vanilla).

Feed to kid who has been asking all morning where the freaking cinnamon rolls are already. Jeez, woman. Get off eBay and make me some breakfast!

And lastly, squeeee! I won the auction. I'm now the proud owner of something that I'll tell you about later. Oooh, the suspense.

  3. Your new obsession is eBay auctions? Are you a time traveler visiting from The Year Two Thousand?
    Seriously, my microwave was NASTY. I cleaned it, but I think we should just give up and buy a new one. It's your fault, too - I was making that coffee cake.
