I learned to bake from my grandmother and greatgrandmother and make a ton of Scandinavian treats among others at the holidays! Lefse was the first treat i made when i was five and it exploded from there. I was born and raised in Bismarck for the most part and after leaving the area for over 7 yrs i now live in mandan and married to a German so my recipes have expanded even more for my xmas baskets i make every year! I love this time if year!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-13177117645608762412011-07-12T10:20:41.731-06:002011-07-12T10:20:41.731-06:00Those look so delicious! :DThose look so delicious! :DLFlextrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07245866874851728751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-37715477179983746572007-12-08T07:54:00.000-06:002007-12-08T07:54:00.000-06:00Mmmmmm cookies!

In England we always did the Christmas cake - a rich fruit cake with marzipan and royal icing on top with decorations such as tiny trees, Santas, holly sprigs etc. Then of course............well perhaps I should do a post on English Christmas food tradition, so I'll stop right here.<BR/>Yum - I'm starving now - gotta go!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02147410299194282171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-86528357470142679742007-12-06T05:00:00.000-06:002007-12-06T05:00:00.000-06:00Wow....now I`m hungry :)Really interesting post Ju...Wow....now I`m hungry :)<BR/>Really interesting post Julie.

I will have my mother over and though Dimentia has robbed her of short term memory...her long term still there! She will instruct me as I try making a strudel for the first time!<BR/>One of those special memories that I speak of in my latest post!

Even closer, in Los Alamitos, we have a bakery called The Great Dane. The bakery is packed with buttery delights such as these.<BR/><BR/>I grew up loving butter! I even memorized the tongue twister, "Betty Botta bought some butter..." Butter cookies and I were made for each other!

I love them, but they are a challenge in our humidity. The Dala horse is often seen in the shop windows nearby. We also have a very wonderful Scandanavian bakery that I shop at. I give a big boxed Kringle from there to many of our friends to have with their coffee on Christmas morning. Last year I gave away 10 of them. It seems to be a much enjoyed and looked forward to gift.<BR/>A very sweet post this this is!<BR/>Take care Julie.Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16147259175811183482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-88510949671163422.post-76795857106248786682007-12-04T22:57:00.000-06:002007-12-04T22:57:00.000-06:00What a lovely and yummy post!
