My Thoughts About Spanish Coffee Cake:

I enjoy a good cup of coffee and having a piece of Spanish Coffee Cake seems right. The cinnamon crumble on top mixes so well with the cake. Invite a coffee fan over and serve this cake with a cup of coffee. I would be willing to bet you will see a big smile on their face after they take a bite. The simplicity of this cake and crumble topping is very tasty for the cinnamon lover.

More Information For You:

 If you want to know where the coffee cake originated from you will have to look to Germany. The name "Coffee Cake" was not used until the late 1800s. To find out more interesting history on the Coffee Cake you can visit the article by OhDanishBakery.com where they provide plenty information on the subject. Another quick fact for you, the hole was also introduced to the coffee cake to make it more appealing to the eye.

Thoughts For The Day:

A new seasoning for me!

I was in the store getting some things and found this new seasoning. I love cajun seasoning and have never tried this one. I will have to come up with some good recipes for you incorporating this season. My go to seasoning is Tony Chachere's Creole seasoning and I have been using it for some time but I am excited to try this Slap Ya Mama. The name is funny and eye catching but slapping my mama would only get me in trouble for sure. I haven't asked my mama but I don't think she would like the name of this new cajun seasoning I've found.

Have a great day, thanks for reading, and keep on cooking!

1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt

My Thoughts:

Wow! What a week for me. I have been pretty busy at my job. I know I mentioned that in my last post about my job but I am known to repeat myself a little. I had to work this Friday so I missed out on helping my daughter at the local farmer's market. I feel bad about that but she is very understanding. She is such a sweet girl.

I also wanted to share here about a former co-worker. He is a young man I had the pleasure of working with who has turned his hobby into a business. He has made soft plastic fishing lures for several years now and even made them when he was in public school. He would sell his fishing lures to his classmates and even his teachers. After he graduated he took a job where I work and for the past year has had his business on a part-time basis. He has set up a booth at the same farmer's market my daughter sells her baked goods.

He has done very on a part-time basis with his job and decided to leave where I work to pursue his business full-time. I tried talking him into staying where I work for another year or so and continuing to work his business part-time while setting up his website to sell lures on. I couldn't talk him into staying so he has left working full-time with me. I completely understand him doing that and he has support from his parents.

He is currently making the same amount of money from his business as he was making from working at the factory with me. I am proud of him and will blog more about his progress in his business as I hear about it from him. I know he will do very well in the sporting goods industry. He is very motivated and a hard worker. He has a very good character and morals. I don't see too many young men like him today.

I decided to share a picture of us both in this post. I hope you enjoy the picture. When he has his website up and his store completely going I will do a post on all those details. His business is Bubba Reds Bait Co. If you are on Facebook you can follow him on his Facebook business page called Bubba Reds Baid Co.

Now allow me to share my thoughts on cinnamon rolls. I absolutely love those cinnamon rolls. There is something about the cinnamon and sugar with the icing that my tastebuds love. I love cinnamon rolls fresh from the oven. My daughter has a cinnamon roll cookie she makes and sells at the farmer's market and they always sell fast. They are one of my favorite cookies she makes. When they are warm they take just like fresh cinnamon rolls. I love to have hot coffee with fresh cinnamon rolls. 

More Thoughts On Cinnamon Rolls:

The history of the cinnamon roll or cinnamon bun is something that many will debate about. The Swedes claim that the cinnamon-baked delight originated there in the 1920s. You can read more interesting facts about cinnamon rolls at The Sussex Kitchen.

Quick Question:

Do you like chopped nuts on your cinnamon rolls? I love nuts but I do not really like them on my cinnamon rolls. I believe chopped nuts can give your baked cinnamon rolls an extra texture many enjoy. Another quick question, do you think that roasting nuts to put on cinnamon rolls would add something special to the taste? It is just an idea I have and I have not tried it but I do think it is worth a try. If I do try this I will share it here on my blog.
