We were invited to Jeff's brother's house for an early Oktoberfest celebration. Jeff is usually a pretty big time fun hater but something got into him.....he actually agreed to join me and Molly in some customary German get ups
Our little family!
Portia, Molly, and Isabelle
I way out did my self for the evening and made something that resembles a donut hole. They are called Kreppeln. I remember family reunions at Bear Lake where there was always a giant basket full of these delicious treats.
Kreppeln
4 cups flour
1/2 cup vanilla sugar (or 1/2 c. sugar with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)
4 teaspoons baking soda
1 egg
rind of 1 lemon grated
1 1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla or rum extract
Mix all ingredients slowly until forms a thick dough.
Drop by teaspoonful into hot oil, fry on both sides until golden.
Roll in granulated sugar.
They are best while still warm
MMMMmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!

nice outfit jeff
I love the outfits...really. I have to, I'm half German! Except I did have to laugh at Jeff for a second. This would make a great Christmas card!
Those look SO GOOD! and so do your outfits!
Hi Kristy - Thank you for my blankie. I got it when I was a baby. I still love it. I love it every day.

*parental side note: I was showing Zack the different blogs that I frequent and when we saw yours I told him that you had given him his 'special blanket'. He has been slightly obsessed with you since and has been overcome with gratitude!!
That last comment was from me - I have 2 google account now and I am not smart enough to keep them straight! Your outfits are AWESOME and I am glad that Jeff wasn't a hater!
