V! Interesting comment right above mine. Not sure where the ‘ought’ or ‘if’ fits in, but…
Now…as for living in the here and now, I’m not Swedish, but I’m a firm believer in the here and now of ‘National Cinnamon Bun Day’–Oct. 4.

Ohhhh Tim, I adore sticky cinnamon buns. When I worked in DC a local place made sticky rum cinnamon buns that were absolutely divine! Now I can’t handle the sugar overload (had to give up Red-Light hot Krispy Kreme donuts, too.) But cinnamon buns are certainly something to celebrate!!!🤪 🥮🍩🍯🍩🥮😋
Virginia! Thanks for checking in! I love how food transports us to good memories. Sorry about the need to reduce sugar decadence in your diet. N
LoL – Tim, I’m just about ready to go into sugar detox (again) after a month of post birthday celebratory treat justifications.. Aaack! 🍰😬🍧🙄🎂😋
