Conference and Cinnamon Rolls

My mom, without question, makes the worlds-best cinnamon rolls. Growing up, she would make them for special events, every Conference Sunday, and sometimes just because. My first year at BYU I tried my hand at these babies and failed, miserably failed! We ended up eating them with milk as cinnamon toast crunch, and they still weren't that good. I vowed never to make them again (mostly because they take 5-6 hours and I was sure I couldn't do it). BUT...that all changed when I volunteered to bring my mom's cinnamon rolls to a friend's conference brunch.

To say I was nervous is an understatement. I called my mom and younger sister (both incredibly domestic) at least 10 times before making them...and while making them...and when they were done to make sure I was doing everything right. My sister's favorite phone call: "Uh Ash, what do you do when you've lost track of how many cups of flour you already added?" Yeah, I blame it on pregnancy brain, or maybe now you understand my lack of kitchen-abilities.

All that being said, I'm proud to report that the cinnamon rolls turned out perfectly perfect and I couldn't have been happier. Our friend, of course, had lots of other super delish dishes and the morning was a major success.

Don't you love when you go to a party with 15 people and you come home with 100 pictures of food and one picture with people. Oh well!
