CINNATRAGEDY
Today I was going to make the best gluten-free cinnamon rolls you have ever tasted in your life. Or at least that's what the blog said. I want to preface this with the fact that I haven't had a cinnamon roll in like 2 years. The thing is, it's so different when you know you can't have one as opposed to just not having one.
Thanks to a friend, I saw this great recipe online. I figured Sunday would be the perfect day as I have church at 8am (I know...should be illegal) and then after nap time I could get to some cinnamon roll making, particularly since it's cool enough to be baking.
I visited three different stores, that's right - 3, to get all of the supplies. This gluten-free baking thing is intense! I came home from church and as I looked at my ingredients scattered over the counter and in the pantry I came to this horrifying realization: I have no mixer.
So, cinnamon rolls, maybe we shall meet another day (hopefully before my buttermilk expires because, really, who needs buttermilk for anything else? gross!).

How horrible...maybe someone in your ward can lend you one?
Buttermilk can used for a dressing BLT salad yummy. I use it for a recipe for peach cobbler amazing, I use it for fried chicken for a rich coating that isn't fattening and you use it for pancakes;) If I were you closer you could have my kitchen aid.
Thanks! I was able to make the cinnamon rolls on Sunday (which were great!) but still have some buttermilk left, so I will definitely be using some of these suggestions. :) I wish I was closer as well.
PS Joanna - you can "make" your own buttermilk with regular milk and lemon juice. Bottled lemon juice lasts for-ev-er! It's what I do when I don't need a lot.
