#65 Pillsbury, Healthy-Baking

My calendar says it's Poppin' Fresh, the Pillsbury Dough Boy's birthday. He was created by Rudy Perz. Perz was sitting at his kitchen table in the mid-1960s when he dreamed up the idea of a plump, dough figure that would pop out of a tube of refrigerated rolls. Since then, Pillsbury has used Poppin' Fresh in more than 600 commercials for more than 50 of its products. A Pillsbury spokesman has said there is no truth to the rumor that Fresh died recently of a severe yeast infection. So Happy 44th birthday! The cookbook for today is #65 Pillsbury, Healthy-Baking, Fresh Approaches to More than 200 Favorite Recipes.
