HALP. QUICK. Rolling pin!

[moa]

Oh, you all, I am such a doofus.

I had the OH-SO-BRILLIANT idea to make cinnamon buns, but here I am now with a big fat DOUGH and no way to actually MAKE THE BUNS. Because I do not own a rolling pin. There must be something else I can use? Something cylindrical, but I cannot think of WHAT.

Any ideas?! I AM DESPERATE. Common household item... I tried a glass, but it's sort of cone shaped and it.. just didn't work...

I don't have an ironing board! And I really need one, but I don't have anywhere to keep it. Any advice would be muchly appreciated. :D

And. Um. Not because I need it, but how DO you clean out 6-month-old coffee thermos? Because YUCK. EW. EWWW.

I found this in my inbox and realized I meant to reply!

To deal without an ironing board, one spreads a big towel on an ordinary table and irons on that. It's annoying because you don't have the shape of the ironing board to help you with things like sleeves, but a table corner works okay, too.

And to clean out a 6-month-old coffee thermos, you rinse thoroughly, then put in some moderately hot water, lots of soap and a few spoonfuls of rice. Then shake. Lots.

Don't empty the contents directly into the sink, though - use a sieve or something so you don't get rice all over :D

And yeah, EWWWWW.
