Why am I obsessed with food?

Don't get me wrong, I love being a Mormon. It's who I am and my whole life revolves around my beliefs. But because of our lifestyle - no drinking alcohol, coffee, caffeinated tea, etc. many of us, (read ME) get very excited about food. Because it fills a need, of sorts, I suppose. When Dave and I reminisce about vacations we've gone on, we spend quite a bit of time fondly remembering the great meals we've had on them
After our delicious breakfast the other day at the Straw Market I got inspired to try making my own cinnamon rolls. I had tried once or twice earlier in our marriage but was never very impressed with how they turned out. My friend, Kim, made them awhile back for a mission farewell. So I texted her, got her recipe, and tried them out. Ashley helped me make them. Ahhh they were sooo good. If you want to try her recipe, go to our food blog: www.grosefood.blogspot.com

Jack didn't think they were too shabby, either:


I tried to be all fancy schmancy and put them in my cake server so they would look like they do in a cafe.
So, call me OCD, but I heart good food. :)

I love food too! What is wrong with us? I'm so glad you posted Kim's recipe. I got it from her years ago and have tried it a couple different times. I still can't master how well SHE does it! I must not have the cinnamon roll gene in me. :(
