(The 60's are the old days now. ) The stollen looks delicious.<br />I have a friend who is making a family cookbook and instead of using only photos of the recipe, she is including original scanned copies of the old written recipe.

She married the German immigrant that worked there too and they carry out that tradition of coffee/tea with a sweet in the afternoon. <br />I loved reading your family story. I think my Grandfather was like the black sheep of the family, so I never was privileged of being around his family. :-)Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07435370349554811512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30577630.post-50709362533884409932012-12-09T18:09:41.767-05:002012-12-09T18:09:41.767-05:00Hi T.W!

Although, I have been meaning to look into it, one day:)<br /><br />I couldn't help chuckling at the notion of "Aunt Greta" sharing a recipe from 1968. I have a few cookbooks that are in German which I've never been able to have translated. I'm thinking perhaps, Aunt Greta thought it would be easier to share the recipe in print. Of course, the story and the memories are what adds to the flavor:)<br /><br />I'm off to Idaho for a couple of weeks, T.W. A very Merry Christmas to you and yours!!! Cherish every morsel of that Stollen:)<br /><br /> ~~louise~~https://www.blogger.com/profile/07335196139849995706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30577630.post-75072777635327041042012-12-09T07:26:50.325-05:002012-12-09T07:26:50.325-05:00How fun that you have Aunt Greta's original re...How fun that you have Aunt Greta's original recipe. I'm sure she would be pleased how well you've taken care of it and of your lovely stollen you've made for us today. I wish I had some of my great-grandmother's German recipes. They would mean a lot to me.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.com
