A Double Doozy

Well, the writing is on the wall.  The little little has a double ear infection after having a fever for four days, big time stuffy's and no sleep for the weary.  The big little is a little better, his nose won't stop dripping and he has a short little fuze (even shorted than normal xxoo), but we are all surviving.  What to do to stay busy, when you are stuck at home with two littles (and a Mommy) who are all under the weather?  Make sticky buns of course!

This is a total fake-out!

We took pre-made frozen dough rolls, dumped them in a buttered pan, sprinkled liberally with cinnamon, used all the brown sugar we had left in the cupboard and used some raisins we found hiding in the pantry.

We let the dough rise until it had doubled in size, then baked the buns at 350 degrees for about 15-18 min.

The big little LOVES cinnamon.  I had to keep catching him "sneaking" tastes of the stuff straight from the "shaker".  Have you ever tasted it plain?!?  What an interesting palate he has...

That looks like a yummy one...

Note the puckered lips (taste of cinnamon perhaps?)

Still in PJs, that should tell you how "well" the day is going...

Look at those buns!

Ahhh, we WILL survive this cold!  xxoo

Sending Love,

Twin A
