Random

Here is my disclaimer:

You may find some random post the next couple of weeks. As you can tell, I have been a BAD BLOGGER lately. But my guilt is catching up with me (okay, it was really Aunt Cathy). So I will be pulling random things out that I haven't blogged about(um, Halloween, etc). Sometimes it will be just a picture or two, or you might get lucky and get some words with it--if not, use your imagination! I don't know why I decided to catch up during the busiest time of the year--oh well, I guess I like to make things dificult. Enjoy!!

Let It Snow.........

This is as good as it gets in Sacramento. It was 34 degrees when I woke up at 6am this morning. Our high is supposed to be 43 degrees. Still had to fight Grant to put his jacket on when he walked out the door this morning for school. I guess that Canadian blood runs thicker than I thought!

Anyone want some of these??

Okay, I'm not trying to sell everyone that looks at this blog something, BUT.............some of you have mentioned that when we did this fundraiser at our school that you wanted to buy some. And I don't remember who you all were, so I guess this is my lazy attempt to get to you (whoever you are). Here is the low down:

Butter Braid® pastries are made from sweet, yeasted pastry dough, are layered with 100% real butter and contain zero grams trans fat. This gives Butter Braid® pastries a flaky outside, and a tender, light and airy inside as each layer raises up before baking. As you take a bite of the One-And-Only Butter Braid® pastry, you will be biting into over 16 layers of warm goodness.

Each Butter Braid® pastry contains a mouthwatering filling such as tart apple, warm cinnamon or smooth cream cheese. These fillings are laid atop the dough and wrapped up as the caring makers of Butter Braid® pastries hand-braid the dough sealing in the filling. The Butter Braid pastries are then frozen to seal in the homemade flavor and freshness.

To top it all off, each Butter Braid® pastry comes with an icing packet to complement the filling inside. Drizzle it over the baked pastry and you have a breakfast, snack or dessert that will leave you (and your guests) begging for more!

Butter Braid® pastries come frozen, allowing you the choice of when to thaw, rise, bake and eat! You can watch as your pastry doubles in size and smell the irresistible aroma of the pastry as it bakes. We recommend that you share your pastry with others, but we won’t tell if you happen to keep it all to yourself!

Flavors:
Apple
Cream Cheese
Bavarian Creme
Raspberry
Strawberry Cream Cheese
Cinnamon

This has been our Christmas Morning tradition for quite a few years now. We take one out of the freezer on Christmas Eve before going to bed. Over night it thaws and rises. Before we start opening presents on Christmas Morning, I pop it in the oven, and when we are done with presents, it is nice and golden brown--ready to eat!!


They are $12 each, I will be putting in the order in Wednesday (but since I am the chair of this fundraiser I have a little bit of a grace period). I can pick up money from you when I deliver them to you on December 18th. Just leave a comment or shoot me an email!!
