Holiday Traditions

@Mizmazzle It is a teacore. I like the fit of this one. Will wear on Sunday When we all go out for breakfast at Sunflower cafe.

@goosehd Very well done. Merry Christmas.

The top pic is the Frank Zappa statue in front of the Highlandtown library. We homeboys.

@Matt nice photos and hey nice hat!

I read The Real Frank Zappa Book, an autobiography. It was a super fun read. If you'd like, I can send you my copy (if you haven't read it already).

[Matt]

I haven’t but I’m sure it’s at the library. I will def check it out.

@Matt thought that was Willem Defoe at first but i guess Zappa is also very worthy of a rad statue

[Alex]

And so it begins...

[Giles]

Ours began........

@Giles Very nice Christmas.

[goosehd]

@Alex just noticed that there are no beverages in the picture. The lack of beverages in my experience makes decorating a lot harder.

@goosehd who knows what’s behind the camera

Somehow it became a holiday tradition that I make cinnamon rolls because I make the best fucking cinnamon rolls on the planet (not an exaggeration), and I hate it. I don’t really enjoy baking and I don’t love sweets, but it really does make everyone happy so I do it with a smile on my face. Bah humbug. Sorry, this turned into a rant. @goosehd is probably going to move this comment to the random rants thread

@seawolf major downvote on two counts - 1) my wife makes the best cinnamon rolls until you prove me wrong, and 2) where are my cinnamon rolls to prove me wrong?

[seawolf]

@Tago-Mago Two very valid points. Would it help to convince you if I told you that I worked as a professional chef for 2-1/2 decades? I'll be making them on Christmas, and you're welcome to stop by for a cinnamon roll so I can prove point #2. It only seems fair. And if you end up liking mine better, your secret is safe with me.

[Tago Mago]

@seawolf the proof is in the pudding, it appears. In all seriousness, not even my wife would claim that she is on a par with a professional chef, so your cinnamon rolls are probably superior

[seawolf]

@Tago-Mago There's only one way to find out! In cinnamon roll competitions with taste testers, everybody wins! My mother-in-law starts talking about my Christmas cinnamon rolls in February. I think that's as much restraint as she's able to muster.

[Matt]

Give me the cinnamon rolls.

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf I was about to ask if those were made from scratch and then quickly remembered who the fuck I was talking to.
