I got my vaccine tonight! Driving was OK in spite of the ice storm. The worst part about the appointment was observing the lack of sanitation procedures. There was no hand sanitizer in sight. We had to answer questions on a clipboard using a pen. When finished, put the clipboard back on the counter. No sanitizing before the next person in line used it. I doubt they wiped down the small room that I had to wait in for 15 minutes after the shot. All this in a medical office! At least, the medical office staff was not involved, it was the Covid vaccination clinic staff who ran the vaccinations. I got my second shot scheduled, but unfortunately there was a change so I now have to go to a clinic 30 miles away instead of 20 miles. Oh well, in 4 weeks there will be more daylight hours so I will feel more comfortable driving after dark. Good luck to everyone else waiting to get appointments!
I made burger buns today, and added a heaping teaspoon of onion powder.
Love the Georgia roll idea (I lived in Savannah for 2 years). They sound yummy, plain or Danish.
I made a blueberry cobbler! Thanks for the idea, BakerAunt. That used up 6 cups of blueberries, 4 containers gone from my freezer! I baked it in my new Breville countertop air oven; it does a really good job baking items.

Kimbob just posted about the snow moving into her area tonight through Tuesday, and here we are predicted to get 8 - 14 inches through Tuesday night. I'm scheduled for my Covid vaccine Tuesday evening. I've waited 3 weeks for this appointment!! It's a 30 minute drive on not so great roads, but I hope the clinic isn't canceled.
We stayed a week in Nuremburg and visited the Kristkindlemarkt there every night. So festive and old-fashioned. I remember ordering that special wafer-like paper online when I made the lebkuchen; it was always on the bottom of the bars we bought in Germany, but not absolutely necessary. Gluhwein is the perfect pairing with the lebkuchen on a cold snowy night.
Kimbob, I don't recall a dominant ginger flavor; it was mostly citrus. As long as you included plenty of other spices, I think you could just omit the ginger, or at least, greatly reduce the amount.
I tried making it after we moved back from Germany, but it wasn't very good, so I do not have a recipe to share. I've never seen the chocolate version. For me, that would not be lebkuchen. KAF recipes are almost always pretty good, maybe needing a few small tweaks - I think you should try that recipe. I agree that it's delicious!
Yes!! Easier and faster than pie! I can use up 3-4 containers of berries. And I hate working with pie crust.
Len, I have enough blueberries for many projects!! I was trying to clean out my freezer (I have 2 large uprights) a bit by using up some of the probably 50 1.5 cup containers of blueberries I have from the last 2 summers. We grow them, I have 10 bushes, we have all we want to eat fresh and to give away and the rest we freeze. With the pandemic last summer, I rarely left the house and didn't see friends and neighbors, so didn't give away as many. I see a pie on the horizon - that will use up 4-5 cups!
This morning I made lemon blueberry muffins - but forgot to put in the blueberries!
Dinner tonight was chicken thighs and leftover japchae.
Dinner on Wednesday was roasted salmon, butternut squash, and broccoli.
Dinner tonight was lasagna -- first time using my new Breville countertop air oven. It will be a steep learning curve, but the lasagna came out perfectly following limited directions.
Thanks for letting us know, BakerAunt, and glad the USPS wasn't having their own little superbowl with packages. Enjoy! I think I replied about the syrup dispenser on another post, maybe under a cooking discussion. It works great! Does not drip! The drizzle/pour is a little slow, but the probably contributes to the non-drip and is fast enough for me.
