I surprised the kids this morning by making these Cream Cheese and Jelly Turnovers:
I found the recipe on Work It Mom and posted a condensed version on my other blog.
I was pleasantly surprised when I finished my devotional reading this morning and the only 2 “kids” I had to separate during quiet time were the cat and dog. Everyone was still asleep at 6:45. This is a miracle in my house! I almost didn’t know what to do with myself sans a child repeating, “can I haf sum bekfst…can I haf sum bekfst…can I haf sum bekfst…”
So I decided to try this recipe and give the family an alternative to cold cereal in a bowl. Sometimes with milk, sometimes without. Depends on who is preparing it and how hungry/impatient the recipient of such a bowl actually is.
I think they liked them, although they didn’t go crazy after them. The 2 that were left over are still sitting on the counter. They are very, very sweet. And next time, I will put a little less jelly in there. I’d like to taste more cream cheese. But give ’em a try. Let me know what your family thinks.

Man those look yummy! I wish I’d been at your house the morning. I’ll have to try them and I’ll let you know what Jay thinks!!!
They look delicious! I’m not a really big fan of reall sweet for breakfast either – unless of course it’s a cream filled Krispy Kreme doughnut, then I’ll make an exception:) I’m thinking these would be great for an “after the kids go to bed, relax and enjoy with a cup of coffee, put on a few extra pounds at bedtime” snack. Wish you lived a little closer and you could join me!
