Not having things done ahead of time made for a rather long and hectic day yesterday. I didn’t even start wrapping presents till noon and the family started arriving around 4:00! But hey, I made three dozen pepperoni rolls, two dozen cinnamon rolls, and two huge pots of chili. We had a table full of snacks when they got there…chips and queso, cheese and crackers, nuts, and Rolo pretzel cookies. When they left last night there was a small container of chili and six cinnamon rolls. It was tons of fun and we had a great time. 

I used a different recipe for the cinnamon rolls this year. I couldn’t find my favorite cookbook with the blue ribbon recipes in it. This one come from Divas Can Cook. They were pretty darned good. The only thing was, I have these new pans and two fit on one rack in the stove. I didn’t even consider how close they were together and heat could not circulate around them…therefore, the bottoms burned. It didn’t stop people from gobbling them up, though! Filled with so much yummy goodness…I added toasted pecans and raisins to these before I rolled them up. 

The only thing we have to do today is church services this evening so I’m looking forward to a relaxing day of knitting and Christmas movies! What’s on your agenda? ?
