making lenten pretzels

Pretzels are an ancient fasting food, made simply from flour, water, yeast (and a little salt and sugar).  The bread is baked in the shape of arms folded in prayer.  

Gabriel ate his raw.  I have no idea where this child gets his love for raw dough.  Ahem ;-)


Dominic was so cute.  He really enjoyed rolling out the dough!


Is there a better smell than bread baking in the oven??


Dear Lent, you've been too good to us!
