Preston Elliot’s Secret For Making The Very Best Crescent Rolls
Remember that commercial with the two people fighting over the last crescent roll? It was a whole family sitting around a table having dinner. The bread basket made it’s way around the table and landed between two family members. They politely offered to split the roll. Then one of the guys entered major jerk mode. He tried to claim that “half of the roll” was signified by the outside of the top layer of the roll. An obvious 70/30 split.
Before punches could be thrown over this egregious proposition, mom walked in with a fresh basket of rolls. We never fully understood this greediness… until today.
Preston treated the morning show to a container full of freshly made crescent rolls with a special twist. His youngest has gotten the baking bug and loves creating sweet treats.
Crescent rolls are great on their own, as proven by the family friction Pillsbury based a whole marketing campaign on. But once you try this new addition, the supply will exceed the demand. We suggest keeping an eye out for those buy-one-get-one-deals.
The good news is that the recipe is super simple! And the results are delectable. Before rolling the crescent rolls out of the tube, make a mixture of dark brown sugar and melted butter. Then roll out the dough. Spread the mixture on the inside, then roll and bake as instructed on the packaging.
Simple, easy and delicious.
Rating Rock's Most Prominent Mustaches
Rock has a hairy history…literally. Across every decade, there’s usually a rocker that emerges with some killer facial hair. While we love a great beard, this gallery will focus on the wonder that is the mustache.
There are a wide variety of mustache types. An “Imperial” mustache is a thicker style where the ends curl inward. There’s also the “Horseshoe,” which is thicker and has ends that curl down towards the mouth. A close relative to the “Horseshoe” is the “Fu Manchu.” The big difference between the two is the “Fu Manchu” has a hairless gap above the upper lip, while the “Horseshoe” is fully connected. The ever-controversial “Pencil” mustache is a thin line of hair just above someone’s upper lip. (Think Little Richard or John Waters.)
Fun fact, and also to prove that any interest has an association: There is such a thing as the World Beard and Moustache Association (WBMA). This association overlooks the World Beard and Moustache Championships. (Yes, this is a real thing.) According to the WBMA’s mission statement, “We also encourage the worldwide appreciation of beards and moustaches. We believe that all facial hair-related events should encourage friendship among those with facial hair and those who appreciate it.”
Our Rating System
To celebrate the mustache and its place in rock history, we selected nine rockers from varying decades who were known to wear a mustache. Some of these men range in being known for their hairy upper lips, while others simply wore a mustache seemingly for fun.
Our rating system won’t use “stars”; instead, it will be based on a range of 1 through 5 mustache combs. With this range, “1” will be the lower ranking, while “5” is a truly supreme mustache for all to admire.
Without further ado, keep scrolling to see our ratings on some of rock’s most prominent mustaches.
