cinna-yum buns

 CINNAMON BUNS SMELL SO GOOD!  I honestly would be compelled to toss my chanel for eau d’ “homemade cinnamon buns baking in the oven” if it existed.  It really is the smell that makes the bun! My Ma (grandma for those of you who are proper) makes really really really good cinnamon buns and always made them in the middle of the night or very early morning when she visited us when I was a kid.  She’s a bit of an insomniac and, like me, bakes when she’s bored.  They smell SOO incredible to wake up to!

I decided to make them late late late one night so I couldn’t call her up to get the recipe so I used The Little Red Barn’s recipe.  They were soft, gooey,laced with cinnamon, brown sugar, and toasted pecans and smothered in sweet sticky icing.
