Morning, muchachos.  Did somebody say cinnamon rolls?

I made some of those this morning, as a matter of fact. Icing provided by Pillsbury, thankfully.

I'm a cinnamon roll snob, so you say "Pillsbury" and I cringe.  But I understand, you want cinnamon rolls, and waiting three hours for them isn't what you have in mind. 

But I'll tell you this.  Get yourself a package of cream cheese, a bag of powdered sugar, some unsalted butter, and some vanilla extract.  Put one stick of butter, 2 oz of cream cheese, a scant pinch of salt, a splash of vanilla (more if you like vanilla) and cream that together.  Then start adding powdered sugar until you get the texture you want.  That's probably going to be about 3 cups or so.  Then frost your Pillsbury rolls with that.  You won't be sorry to leave Pillsbury's frosting safely in whatever plastic container they ship it in.

I make my cinnamon rolls with raisins and use cream cheese cake frosting similar to yours.

I don't prefer raisins in cinnamon rolls, which is weird because I like them in other contexts.

We're experimenting with almond extract, which is pretty good but we haven't got it perfected yet.  Next on the list is working up maple frosting and rolling bacon crumbles into the rolls.

That sounds delightful, but is definitely a lot more work than I'm willing to put in for cinnamon rolls.

You're one lazy bastard, aren't you?  ;-)

Apparently, when it comes to cinnamon roll icing, yes.

When it comes to cinnamon rolls or most other confections, I just buy it.  Just doesn't work out making a batch for one person in the house.

Now if you still lived in Joisey you could have called Mr. Mayor Plumbing instead.

And not that it's any of my business, but why did that brand new house need a plumber?  Fire toilet on the fritz?

And that recipe takes, what, five minutes?  It takes longer to bake the Pillsbury rolls.

Plumber over this morning, dog walk delayed, so I'm a little behind time this morning.

Those are brand new pipes. What gives?

[Travellin Dave]

Some trick or treat smokes for you from Cigar Fed.

Don't know how they smoke, but you gotta love the naming from Dissident.

Apparently they didn't seat one of the gaskets right and a bolt was loose, so there was a slow leak when used.  As that bathroom is not used much when just me, having company over the last few weeks has brought it to light.
