So every wednesday I will be cooking dinner for my family. It's my way of learning how to cook so that once Brandon and I are married, we aren't stuck with cereal and scrambled eggs every night. [Yes, I just said married.] Even though he's perfectly content with both of those.. I don't want him to get sick of it... and I love cooking- so it's the perfect chance :)
Tonight- Cinna-Bon pancakes. Yes... AMAZING! They look and taste just like the actual Cinnamon Buns. Only better because you can eat bacon or eggs with them. But- why would you want to do that?? My brother ate 5... I ate three. My mom was only going to eat 1 but I think she had three too. THEY ARE SO GOOD! I made them tonight to test them out for Friday. I'm going over to Brandon's house early morning to make them for him as a part of his birthday. I really think he'll love them :)
the website I used for the recipe:
www.bigredkitchen.com/2010/06/cinnamon-roll-pancakes.html
I used Fat free cream cheese and skim milk to reduce some of the calories and fat. That way you can eat MORE! Because, you'll want to... yum-o!
The great thing about cooking, it's your chance to show someone how much you mean to them. If I were to hand Brandon a bowl of cereal every night for dinner- what would that tell him? No, not just "hey, I bought lucky charms instead of fruit loops this week." I feel like me MAKING something, slaving over the hot stove, and researching something special is my way of showing him, and anyone else I might be cooking for, how much they mean to me. I really love cooking...
well, I'm hanging out my apron and throwing in the towel for tonight- after I clean up that is!
