Overnight Pull apart cinnamon Loaf :)

Hey, I cannot tell a lie, this is straight from the pages of the April 2012 issue of Better Homes and Gardens, I was reading it last night (I know I am a bit behind, but I usually am!).  I always ear mark the pages I cannot live without and then tear them out the next morning before recycling the rest of the magazine.   That way I don't have the bulk of saving all of the magazines.  I three-hole punch the pages I love and keep them in a 3-ring binder which is chock full of paint colors I want to try, decorating ideas and of course recipes. 
Today, My daughter Heather is graduating with her AA degree from M-State Fergus Falls, I am very proud of her and this accomplishment as she has never had an easy time with school, and she did this while working a 3/4 time job to boot, good for you Heather Nicole, Mom loves you!
