The Village Green Bakery and Cafe: Cinnamon Rolls to Die For!

Recently I had a craving for cinnamon rolls.  It started after listening to a talk radio show that featured Piper Davis of Grand Central Bakery in Portland, Oregon.  She talked about her bakery's cinnamon rolls, a cafe favorite made from hearty whole grains.  Well, I ordered her cookbook to get my hands on her recipe, but in the meantime, I just couldn't wait.  I set out in search of Lake Arrowhead's newest addition: The Village Green Bakery and Cafe.  I remembered seeing huge cinnamon rolls on display, so I picked up two for my husband and me to enjoy with our coffee the next morning.  They were delicious!  Actually one was plenty--warmed and sliced--leaving the second one for us to devour the next day.  Thank you to owner Rochelle Orlando and baker Leah Skiba.  I will now be a regular customer! 

As soon as my cookbook arrives, I intend to try my hand at Grand Central Bakery's whole grain cinnamon rolls and will taste and post my results.  Until then, and when I'm not baking myself, you can find me at the Village Green Bakery.
