Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls



You can't tell it from the picture but these cinnamon rolls were the best I've ever made. I got the recipe off of Pinterest.

3, 2, 1 cake Lemon Cake



Has anyone tried the 3, 2, 1, cake?

You take the cake mix of your choice and put it in a gallon baggie with a angel food cake mix.

When you are ready to eat cake just put 3 tablespoons in a coffee mug with 2 tablespooons of water.

Microwave for one minute.

I made the lemon. Loved it.

Canning Jars painted with Chalkboard Paint



I don't like all of those opened loose bags of things in my cabinets. They always spill.


I bought a case of canning jars and put stuff like coconut, marshmallows, cocoa powder, brown sugar, and powdered sugar in them. I loved the way the inside of my cabinet looked.


For the most part, it was obvious what was in the jar but from time to time, I couldn't tell cocoa powder from my latte mix. I bought a jar of chalkboard paint for 97 cents at Michael and painted a swish on each jar. Now, I can write what is in the jar on the label. I simply wash off the chalk when I change what it is in the jar.
