Lola by Todd Clark for February 23, 2024

Same here, Lola.

Why would anyone ruin a perfectly good cinnamon roll by putting raisins in it?

With me, a cinnamon roll would not last long enough for an examination.

Crazy Lola, raisins are the highlight of good cinnamon rolls.

There’s more to life than raisins, but not everyone sees that. My Mother’s diary at age 94 was recording what was at breakfast and nothing about her many years.

I happen to like cinnamon rolls with raisins.

I agree, Lola.

I have to have raisins on my… ah, who cares?

What?!?…I love raisins in my cinnamon rolls!!

Hooray! Another person who doesn’t like raisins in their pastry.

From the all knowing Google: The iconic Cinnabon Classic Roll, created by Jerilyn Brusseau, originally contained raisins

I’m with you on that one Lola. I can’t stand a raisin that is cooked in anything, although I will eat them raw. Raisins in pastries is an abomination.

My dad (RIP) used to call raisins “buggus” (bugs) when he found them in his food.

In the old Toronto zoo there was the Monkey House. One cage had several rhesus monkeys. Quite often they were fed raisin bread. One monkey tossed out the raisins à la Lola, his buddy thought they were the best treats.

so, judging from some of the comments, I’m guessing sour cream and raisin pie is a no go??…(Lol!!)
