strawberry and cream rolls

This is another one of my middle-of-the-night-recipe -ideas.  Aren’t you glad I’m nocturnal sometimes? The best ideas come to me when I am without a pen. Usually while I am either in the shower and also at 2:24am.  One day I am going to invent a waterproof pen that lights up when you write with it. Hey…don’t steal that idea. It’s mine, man.

I write with my left hand.

I right with my left hand.

LOL…I’m just messing with you…

Back to it:

It’s strawberry season. Woo-hoo to that because I love me some strawberries! Hey…..did you know strawberries can whiten your teeth? I read that somewhere. I’m not sure if it’s true, so don’t quote me…I do know they can stain. Yep, you can quote me on that one. Strawberries stain.

bread+strawberries+cream cheese+sugar = bliss

The above mentioned+ 20 minutes at 375=……

I love before and after baking pictures.

slather on some frosting… and you’ve got a delightful springtime breakfast treat. (That’s my cooking show lady voice)

Sometimes, you gotta use little voices in your head for my “words”.

Example:

Woo-hoo!

Yay!

Yippee!

Ooops.

Oh yeah.

Gasp!

Huh?

Ewwww!

I need to bring out the professional sounding cooking lady voice:

“In a delicate caper and white wine sauce”

“Perfect for a ladies luncheon”

“A perfect accompiment to a hearty roast”

“Rich, creamy filling “

I’m totally channeling my inner Ina. 🙂
