My mom would always make potato bread dough on Christmas Eve to make rolls for Christmas dinner the next day. On Christmas morning, she would take some of the dough and roll them into Orange-Cinnamon rolls and drizzle them with homemade icing. They would be hot and gooey straight out of the oven and us kids would devour them in our PJs! In fact, when I was with my family this past week, she brought some dough and made the rolls for us so that it would feel like Christmas. I love them!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17866068706438710546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34978538.post-55365972487673633042008-12-19T16:52:00.000-08:002008-12-19T16:52:00.000-08:00I love target! 1/2 my wardrobe comes from target....I love target! 1/2 my wardrobe comes from target.
