Tour of Homes




Welcome to our home!


Our theme this year is gold in memory of my grandmother.
This is a gold-leafed santa, given to us a by grandma a couple of years before she passed away. (She would gold-leaf ANYTHING) Seriously, she gold-leafed an entire side table!


Glass candle holder with ornaments in the bottom.
Glass box with lights inside.
The tree. (Sorry, it's a little shaky)
Recipe for Grandma Rosie's Christmas Morning Roll


32 frozen rolls (the kind that have to rise)


1 pkg. Butterscotch Cook and Serve Pudding


1 C. Brown Sugar


1 C. Sugar


3-4 Tablespoons Cinnamon


1 C. Butter


1/2 C. Pecans


Spray two bunt pans with cooking spray. Next mix pudding mix, sugars, and cinnamon in a zip-lock baggie. Srinkle 1/4 C. of pecans in the bottom of each pan. Arrange 16 FROZEN rolls in each pan. After that, sprinkle half of sugar/cinnamon mix over each pan of frozen rolls. Finally evenly pour 1/2 C. of butter over pan. (It will seem strange but it really does work!) When finished, cover each with a dish towel and let rise over night. SERIOUSLY, if you make it right before going to bed, it will be ready to put in the oven when you get out of bed. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20-30 minutes. Watch it and get out of oven when golden brown.


Don't be tempted to put too many frozen rolls...IT WILL RUN OVER!


I don't remember a Christmas morning at Grandma Rosie's house that we didn't have this. I hope y'all enjoy!
