Because Cinnamon Rolls Make Everything Better

How do you prepare your home for guests? Whenever we have guests visiting from out of town, I try and come up with a few simple ways to make them feel welcomed and at home with:
fresh sheets on the bed
fluffy towels laid out just for them
 extra toiletries (I like to save sample sizes of tooth paste, shampoo, conditioner, soap on hand for guests….and a few extra toothbrushes too!)
their favorite snack in the pantry
a few magazines on the nightstand
their favorite coffee
….and of course a yummy breakfast.


Pillsbury™ Grands! Cinnamon Rolls are the perfect indulgent breakfast for when those special guests are visiting from out of town. They make everything better! I picked up a can of cinnamon rolls to bake and literally my mouth started watering. 

Seriously they turned out SO yummy! They were so good and totally make me look like the best hostess ever.

Hudson of course loves when guests are over….especially if that means

he gets a special treat!

And let’s be real…any guests we have get to put up with the craziness that is our house….so they deserve something extra sweet.


I love that Pillsbury™ Grands! Cinnamon Rolls are easy and simple to prepare and taste homemade. Making these cinnamon rolls is an easy way for me to help our guests feel welcomed…without having to slave away in the kitchen! Which means instead of doing dishes I have more time to actually spend with our guests.

What special things do you do to prepare for out of town visitors?

    Yum! We love those cinnamon rolls. I made some from scratch last year and they were so delicious, but a lot of work, and who has all that free time — ready to bake it the way to go!
