elwing's Journal: Christmas Dinners

Why is it that Christmas dinners always take more time and effort than planned?
I promised my mom that I'd make some of my homemade cinnamon rolls for dinner tommorrow (er... today), and it's taking freaking forever. Who has cinnamon rolls for Christmas dinner anyway? No, I didn't volunteer, I was asked... and of course, I said "yes, I'll do it". Now I'm regretting it... Mix the dough, let it rise, make rolls, let em rise, cook em, coat em...
Haven't even gotten to the coat em part yet.. I think I'll do that in the morning, maybe..
It's already 2am, and I was up at 10am to help mom do other things for dinner, and I've got to get up about 9 anyway to get to her house on time for dinner..
The whole family will be there, at least Lethyos will be there with me as well.
