The first experience was just the other day, when I was getting dressed (in jeans) to go over to our friends’ house. And I realized that it was the first time I had gotten dressed in anything other than leggings in a full week. And let’s not even talk about showering, or doing my hair, or putting on makeup….because the reality is I rarely do any of them. Because, well, there’s rarely a reason to….!
All you need is a package of crescent rolls, cream cheese, sugar, lemon extract, and fresh lemon zest…..and you’re well on your way enjoying Lemon Cheesecake Crescent Rolls for breakfast, a snack, or even dessert. And if you happen to put on jeans or get out of the house that day, too? Well, in that case, you are REALLY winning at life.
