I did not get cinnamon rolls made last weekend as I'd hoped. So I made them yesterday. And they were deeeeeelicious. They will be our special treat for this week.
I will be trying 2 new recipes this week - Mongolian Beef and Chicken Lasagna Roll-ups. I love cookbooks and look through them regularly but am not always so good about remembering to add a dish or two to the upcoming menu plan. This week 2 intrigued me. My problem in trying new recipes, however, is that I always want to tweak them. Not a bad thing, I suppose, but I really should try them the way they are written first. But I don't. I always have planned changes. This week is no different.

I love the idea of the weekly grocery budget. With your delicious menu, (and those cinnamon rolls!) you've inspired me to try one for myself.
I'm dying for your cinnamon roll recipe. The pic makes them look so good! I searched on your blog, but didn't see it. Can you email it to me? judie at gurrfamily dot com
Thanks!
