Since I CANNOT resist even shoe-wrapped chocolate, St. Nick leaves my kids an ornament to put on our tree which goes up a week later. Those cinnamon rolls are awesome, and if you have been blessed with the Lx gene (for laziness) like me, you can use puff pastry from the fridge section, (a la Pillsbury dough boy).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1262517653358371042.post-91257773876040368932008-12-12T20:26:00.000-08:002008-12-12T20:26:00.000-08:00Cheaper than canned or boxed broth and cheaper (an...Cheaper than canned or boxed broth and cheaper (and tastier) than bullion cubes is powdered bullion.<BR/><BR/>The cheapest way to get it is in the big container from Walmart (they sell smaller ones there and smaller ones at the grocery store). <BR/><BR/>It's by Knorr.
