it rained once today

i have been on a run this morning and loved it. it is not cold for the middle of winter, it has just been wet today. it rained once and that really had me stay inside after the run. i don't mind, i love to bake and cook and stand in the kitchen mixing and making eatable "things". and of course the people living with me, love to eat what ever i come up with.

today it was the biberli, no big magic there, except that i didn't have lebkuchengewuerz in my drawer. what to do? mixing the different spices and some of them, cardamom and anise i even had to grind up in the mortar. and so i ended up with a spice mix which is a bit spicy....
though everyone loved the little biberli with the marzipan core.
a lemon pie was also in the making and for dinnerwe had stuffed potatoes with leek, which turned out to be delicious and no one has turned down such comfort food on this rainy/wintery night.
