Jumers Cinnamon Rolls

IMG_1556

Ahh its been awhile but here I am just in time for some christmas time treats. Jumers Cinnamon rolls as a kid were basically my holy grail of deserts. I seriously would stuff myself full of these things. Being that my Dad worked at a Jumers I was naturally there quite a lot. On weekends we would head to bloomington (my sister and I) and spend the weekend with my dad. What was cool is we would stay in the hotel everyonce in awhile. Now as a kid that was always a fun time. Friday night we would eat in the restaurant which like the hotel was awesome. Every dinner they would serve these rolls and I would just eat and eat. Sat. morning we would wake up and get breakfast and just like before we would grab these cinnamon rolls. They were just so good. Well its many years later and finally I have tried my best to replicate what I remember as a kid. I do believe I have gotten very close and will prolly modify it here in the future but for now here it is.

Buttermilk Blueberry Pancakes with Maple Butter /also chocolate chip pancakes

img_1329Who doesn’t like a good pancake. This is actually one of the few breakfast items that I normally don’t ever eat at its designated time. I almost always have these for dinner rather the a breakfast. Part of it has to do with the fact that syrup is too sweet for me in the morning. However I love a good Maple Syrup. My wife on the other hand loves her plastic bottle mass produced yuck in a bottle. LOL We actually have to have both cause I will not use hers and she will not use mine. Its kind of nice that way. Not to mention I like blueberry and she likes chocolate chip so we also have different pancakes. I have that picture posted towards the bottom. So I decided instead of buying the bisquick pancake in a shaker thing I would give an attempt at making some. Let me tell you I won’t do it any other way. They are easy to make and taste so much better. Not to mention the fluffiness and lightness of these hotcakes were awesome.

Turkey Wine’s for Rice

img_1185

12 years ago I had a meal with one of my good friends’ family. The meal has stuck with me ever since as its been one of my all time favorites to make and eat. Its simple and tastes great. Not to mention its a relatively healthy meal for all you weight watchers that haven’t found anything to eat on my blog yet. The colors of this dish are very nice when everything comes together. Throw a red pepper in there as well and you could have a good color palette. My wife however does not like the onions or peppers so I stay plain for this one. Turkey has been one of my favorite meats to cook with over the years. You can get it to replace beef in almost any meal. Its naturally healthier for you and I love the taste and moistness of it in most dishes.
