Mom, you'd be proud :)

The other day I was on the search for some interesting breakfast foods to make. As I glanced through the cookbook, I came across such a nostalgic recipe......monkey bread. Oh how my mind quickly reverted back to the mornings all huddled around the dining room table, still in our pajamas, picking from the bunt cake pan of monkey bread....licking our fingers...and then going back for more :) Oh the germs of love....

You'd be proud mom. I made the whole thing from scratch. No help from Pillsbury biscuits! And I was even on such a baking roll that I whipped up some baked oatmeal to go with it. I thought I would document my efforts. The bummer was that I was over spontaneous and made the entire creation at night. When I woke up in the morning, my delicious mouth watering expectation was quickly shot down by hardened stale bread.....sad day. At least I now know how to make it for next time!
