Little House in the Willow Glen: Day 349

Day 349 - Making judenkager

on Thursday, December 15, 2011

Tonight I was making judenkager, my favorite Christmas cookies, a flat crisp cookie leavened with ammonia bicarbonate. Lydia asked if she could help and much to my surprise, was actually a lot of help. We had a little assembly line going. She kept things moving along well, brushing the cookies with egg wash and adding almonds and cinnamon sugar before I put them in the oven.
It was sort of a weird and wonderful experience as I struggled with the disbelief at what I was experiencing.

Distractions galore!

My job is in technology. For the last 2 years, I have been working on a MLIS with a focus on, technology. But, when I step away from the computer, I have the most fun doing the more low-tech things.

As a child, I read the Little House Books like they were modern manuals for life. If they could do it on the prairie with no power, I must have a good shot. I am still an avid reader, a neurotic baker, crafter, knitter, amateur DIYer, and multi-tasker.

Since I am the queen of distraction and PIGS (projects in grocery sacks), I decided to share my chaos with the world. Who knows, you might see something you actually like.
