Dreaming

Today I saw this question come up on Facebook.

If you were a food, what would you be… and why?

And I knew that I would be a crescent roll.
And I know I very well couldn't put that on the America's Test Kitchen page...because they are so classy and from scratch...and I'm more of a homey, easy, and occasionally homemade kinda cook.

Crescent Rolls are really comforting. They are great by themselves, but also flexible in use with other ingredients. Maybe a crust in a breakfast cassarole...maybe rolled up with ham and cheese for lunch...maybe surrounding a marshmallow and dipped in butter and cinnamon sugar to tell the story of the Resurrection. Crescent rolls are buttery and satisfying. Fancy, simple, sweet or savory. They can do it all.

OK...maybe I'm not a crescent roll...but a girl can dream!

(once on this blog I wrote an Ode to a Crescent Roll...I wish I knew when, so I could find it again.)

    Ode to Crescent Rolls

    Yummy yummy golden bread
    O how I love to eat you
    Breakfast, lunch or in the night
    your soft insides warm me
    Even your dough delights me

    Versatile beyond compare
    Appetizers and Desserts
    request you in their plan
    Eight are never enough
    especially when I have to share
