CHRISTMAS ANGEL WINGS/BOW TIE COOKIES

 For years I bought bow tie cookies from the little Jewish family bakery on the corner of our street.  I loved those best.  I have a hankering for having bow ties again.

Our Jewish Bakery is gone.  No one wanted to carry on the family business.  All those recipes gone forever.  So I went on the hunt and this recipe looks pretty darn close to my memories.  The biggest change is that the ones I remembered had a coating of clear sugar over their tops, not powdered. 

I think I will be trying these this Christmas season to see how they measure up to my memories....

They are known as both Angel Wings and Bow Ties.  They sure look appetizing.

No-Break Over Easy Eggs

 If you are like me, you like your morning eggs once over lighty.  But they're not easy to do.  Flip them, and 9 times out of 10 you crack one of them and the yolks run all over your pan.  Try this method instead.....

Now why didn't I ever think of that.  So simple.

How To Get Up and Down from The Floor

 As I get older, my body seems to make things harder to do.  One is getting up from a floor.  That seems to be impossible for me these days.  I found this video with some answers.  I hope it is helpful to you as well.

Not long ago, I slipped and fell between my sofa and coffee table.  I felt like a flopping trout out of water.  It took me over 10 minutes to get myself up off the floor.  I was exhausted from the effort needed.

I hope, with this information logged in my brain, that another time I will get up without trouble.

I hope this is helpful to everyone.

Easy No-Knead Bread and English Muffin Recipes

 I want to bake breads this year but want to be sure they are easy ones.  I have not baked any myself since I had a breadbaking machine.  This time I want to bake them in the oven.

I love Living Traditions on youtube.  I watch this homesteading channel all the time and find some great information with them.  This seems like my kind of bread making effort; a no-knead bread baked in a Dutch oven in my stove's oven.

1/4 teaspoon Dry Yeast

1 teaspoon Salt

1 1/2  to l 3/4 Cups Hot Tap Water

This is one I will definitely be trying but have to buy the yeast first and that won't happen til this weekend.
