Writing up a storm for fellow alternative media sites, I stumbled across this gem and was like, “Ermegerd – must make”.

Well let me just confirm for you all – it freaking rocks.

I mean, how many times have you woken up in the morning wishing Grandma was there to soothe away your fears inhibitions of going to work with her yummy, heart-warming cinnamon buns?

Yeah – I see you raising your hand.

Now you can kick your own butt in gear as you lie in bed, thinking about this dreamy way to start the day.
