Just to clarify. None of the things I mentioned should be home made. I am not aware of anyone that makes them at home. They are all store bought and from your comment, I understand why. I shall never attempt making any 🤣🤣 But, there are some other cookies that are home made and easier to make. You know, those type of cookies your grandma makes once fot Christmas in a big batch and sends them to her grandchildren. The typical examples are Vanille Kipferl, Kokosmakronen and Zimtstrene. My favourite are the Kokosmakronen, which are basically whipped egg whites with sugar and coconut pieces. If done correctly (and not over baked) they are crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. I find it interesting that the German heritage is so deeply kept or acknowledged in your family. Is that typical in the states that these traditions are kept?
Lebkuchen are amazing. But I never thought of or know somebody that makes them at home. Maybe that's the reason 🤣🤣 My favourite Christmas cookie is and will always stay the Spekulatius. They sell them here from August on. And I also buy them in August because dann they are good. They are the only cookie I know that get BETTER after the after the package has been opened and left to accumulate moisture. There are also other nice Christmas thingies. In no particular order. Lebkuchen Hearts, Domino Stones, Aachener Printen (these are amazing)
I am so happy everything is well :) I hope you are recovering well from such a rollercoaster ride
IT WAS JUST SNOT!
Like clockwork, around this time of the year, I end up alternating between The Nationals High Violet https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiN-7mukU_RFphJXbc542sgsNsGeRNXL4 Or Imogen Heaps Ellipse https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPaztBWnatciUPBDhmoHJa0E6Z4pLOOUH
You and your dirty tricks! >.< :D
