I’m gonna gripe.
If you don’t want to hear it, please fast forward to the tasty recipe below.
If you’re on-board to listen to my diatribe, please carry forth.

Annoying facebook posts.
You know the ones.
Here are some that top my “please pierce my eyes out with skewers rather then make me read them” posts…

“Made homemade cinnamon rolls AGAIN for my kids..guess I am a creature of habit”
Gag. We get that you are trying to convince people you are Mother of the Year, or you know what? maybe you are…but please, my kids are sitting here eating Lucky Charms and quite happy. Plus, Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls are seriously delicious..save yourself the yeast.
“Woo hoo! I am now down to my high school weight…love the gym!”
Double gag. I certainly can’t speak for everyone, but I know that I don’t give 2 shakes how much you weigh. Stop bragging about loving the gym. The gym sucks, we all know it.
“Having a bad day…”
PLEASE, just come out and say WHY you’re having a bad day…it’s obvious you want people to ask, so spit it out, because, trust me on this…I’m NOT going to inquire further.
Any random song lyric.
No one thinks your cool because you quote The Rolling Stones.
I MIGHT think you’re cool if you quote Vanilla Ice, but no one seems to do that.

“My husband is cheating on me.”
Dude, TMI. While I agree that he should be put on blast, not sure that facebook is the correct forum. Just sayin’.
or the most annoying…
Updating the world with EVERY THING YOU DO…
example…“Just got home from work…”, “What to eat for dinner?”, “Gonna watch some TV now”, “Great show”, “Sleepy now, going to bed”
Don’t need to know everything.
Now, beyond all THAT I really enjoy facebook.
I like seeing pictures and keeping in touch.

Those posts are so funny!! I totally agree….people on facebook drive me crazy! That recipe looks delicious!
Ok, so I made it this afternoon and it was delicious! I didn't have pie crusts on hand, so I just left it out and made it in a 9-inch cake pan. It reminded me of a cinnamon roll. I think I'm going to have a very yummy breakfast tomorrow!
Yum! That looks great.
lol… i stopped posting because of all of those reasons.. i love pics and keeping in touch too! this looks yummy as usual!
I am soooo laughing at this post…because today I actually quoted "Ice Ice Baby" as my status on FB. one of the few times I have done a song quote… lol 🙂 I know you totally want to be my friend now 🙂
My least favorite facebook posts are when people air their dirty laundry. Just yesterday a facebook "friend" posted a rant about how her stepson doesn't appreciate her, etc., etc…I couldn't believe it. I'm sure her posting that as her status really improved their relationship!?!
I think I am going to like this pie more than the cookie! 🙂 It looks like a giant cookie, only better! Amazing!
I definitely agree with your feelings on Facebook posts!! I really hate it when people post about losing weight. Friend of mine posted a picture of herself noting how she looked 3 weeks after she had a baby. That makes me sick! I have no kids and I'm still not that skinny, but trying! guess I should be happy for her but I'd rather people keep it to themselves. As my dad always said "life isn't fair". I never understand the lyrics either. Oh and the snickerdoodle looks great too!!
Looks so delicious! I really would love to bite into this right now…
I think it would shut anyones complaints up !
Love the pie -need to make it ASAP!
I hate the same facebook posts – I had to hide one person b/c every day they would post that they were finally going to tackle the laundry. I mean seriously, that is worthy of posting to everyone? Just get off the computer and do the d$@n laundry!
There's a girl right now who [for whatever reason, I'm sure she's said and I didn't read it] doesn't have a car right now. EVERY post is her whining about being bored at home because she doesn't have a car. An occasionally, she's passive-aggresively guilts people when someone visits or takes her somewhere, like "I'm Soooo glad so-and-so came and rescued me from my house!" Um, you're a grown woman. No car=your fault.
And I can't believe you didn't make your own crust! MOTY indeed. 🙂
