TGIF Bunn

Ever have one of the those weeks that you were looking forward to.  The kind of week where you thought you were really gonna kick some ass/arse, only you never did?

That's how my week went.

I'm behind on just about everything this week.  And I have to say, I'm really happy it's the weekend.  Even better, Tim gets THREE days off in a row.  His only request is calzones and a trip to the Barnes cafe.  Simple enough.  Might even throw in almond pizzelles, just because he loves them.

Meanwhile, here was last night's dessert.  I had extra dough so I tossed together a single (but nice sized), cinnamon bunn.  For the top I mixed local maple syrup, icing sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla, to taste.

It was so flippin' good.

    Mmmm... Cinnamon buns. A major weakness of mine. :)

    Of course, calzones sound yummy, too. Enjoy!!

    God that looks awesome. You know, anytime you are passing through TN, just stop by, I will get the kitchen set up for you and you can stay as long as you like. It will only cost you some time cooking for me.

    Tim is a lucky guy.

      This is a good way to travel, just making people food as payment for staying a night.

      Hope your exercise was good yesterday. I got to walk the dogs again. Woohoo. Slowly but steady.

    I think I gain weight just reading your blog sometimes.

    I bet it flipping was. That look marvelous. I concur with Susan Gourley/Kelley's comment. Oh, now that you've stirred up my sweet tooth (not that it needed much stirring - LOL!) I am off to my local bakery. Have a cheerful weekend. Cheers!! P. S. Are you a pastry chef? If not, you might have missed your sweet calling.

    That has been the case for me for the last year! I can empathize but now I want to make a sticky bun smothered in a maple glaze (which is genius BTW).

      Nothing like good local maple sryup. And boy, doesn't it also make for a wonderful maple butter gravy over ham. So so good.

      You too, eh? Here's to next week not being that way. I'm on three day weekend with Tim now. And I gotta say, all of last week is GONE from my mind now. Love when he gets three days off in a row.
