Cinnamon Caramel Pull-Apart Monkey Bread

I went out to to dinner with one of my friends last night and we were talking about trying to fix people. It's a common thing really. Many people jump into a relationship and want to help the other person or "fix" them. This doesn't work. Not only does it not work - it doesn't work. Because, it doesn't work, that's why. Yeah, yeah, it doesn't work. A relationship should be a teammate situation. You are both equals - on the same team. Sharing respect for each other and embracing what it is that you love about that person ... because you ain't changing what you don't love. You're not. Stop it. Stop it now. Whatever it is that you don't like is going to drive you insannnnnnnnne in 10 years time, so just be aware of your situation. I know, serious stuff for a Friday, but you know I can't talk about butter and sprinkles everyday. 

Speaking of fixin' ... I ain't fixin' nutin' about these pull-apart individual monkey bread holy heaven bites of amazingness. Hellllls no I'm not. Make them. Eat them. And have a great weekend. Xx
