Mmm hm. Aaaaaw yeah.

Well, this year I lost the recipe (which means I lost the original November 2001 issue of the magazine and the two copies I made and put in protective sleeves because I always loose this recipe) so I Googled around and discovered that CI is very protective of their intellectual property!

Make that ten. I just started another batch of crescent rolls. We're doing a Mulligan Thanksgiving with some friends on Sunday. Just because.

It's good to be back!
