Aebleskivers Recipe from Donna

For breakfast on Christmas morning, brunch really since it was 1030, I made Aebleskivers just like the kid's Aunt Donna makes them. Well, maybe not that good, but very edible anyway. Here is a copy of her delicious recipe to go along with the Danish guy makin' em in the video previous to this post. Yummmy (hint: click on the pic to get a large version)

Christmas quote

The following quote has been going around lately:

"There are many things from which I might have derived good, by which I have not profited, I dare say," returned the nephew. "Christmas among the rest. But I am sure I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round -- apart from the veneration due to its sacred name and origin, if anything belonging to it can be apart from that -- as a good time: a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time: the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys. And therefore, uncle, though it has never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket, I believe that it has done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!"-- Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol

Cough, cough, sneeze wheeze.

Trafficman became closely acquanted with a box of Kleenex and cough syrup today at home. I went to work briefly, determined that work could get along without me today and came back home to rest. I think I have the same thing that many at work have had over the past three weeks, as well as some of my kids, both at home and at their own homes (you know who you are).

Excuse me, I have to blow my nose and take some more cough syrup.
