    And they were used to queueing for hours,
    yourself not so much.
    No, not usually at a place like Woolworths, on a Monday morning.

    Beware those Monday mornings. Think of all those
    easterners, and how they were watching the clock
    tick down all Sunday.

    It's one of these techno-nerdy things anyway. (G)
    Also important for people with eyes, which of
    course I'm not particularly.
    Mine work, tho not 20/20.

    Add an extra zero here or there, and that
    might be applicable to me.

    Definitely - we visited that Sanssouci place,
    and it wasn't as over the top as one might
    expect. Friedrich der Gross in many ways wasn't
    as gross as many think. It wasn't his fault
    that the Nazis adopted him as an ancestor.
    He was just the one that happened to be picked. (G)

    Well, he was a massive imperialist, a homosexual,
    and might have liked Wagner if Wagner had been
    born during his lifetime.

    A friend's mom gave me a more basic version of this recipe years
    ago; I > don't think she got it from NY.
    I'm not sure why it's become a NYC icon, or
    for that matter an icon at all, It's a cookie.
    Surely sensible New Yorkers would like to be
    remembered for something other than a cookie.
    I don't ever recall hearing it mentioned in connection with NY City.
    OTOH, Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs, lox and bagels, egg creams, etc......

    I've been to at least two bakeries that specialize
    in the things. Not that that's anything to be
    overproud of, just that they do. Both are in Brooklyn,
    which has precious little else to be proud of.

    ---------- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.01

    Title: Knishe Dough
    Categories: Appetizers
    Yield: 36 servings

    2 c Sifted all purpose flour 1/2 ts Salt
    3 Eggs; well beaten 2 tb Water
    1 ts Baking powder 1 tb Oil

    Mix all ingredients and form into smooth dough-and roll it to 1/8 inch
    thickness OR use WONTON wrappers I have had excellent results. Fill with
    anything your heartdesires-my favorite is potato. All you do is make
    mashed
    potatoes, season them to taste, and let them cool. You may also use
    kasha-anything! Moisten the edges and fold over the filling, and press
    edges together. Place in a pan greased with hot oil and bake in a 350
    oven
    until brown and crisp. I promise, you will come out with a product
    similar
    to the famous Mrs. Stahl's of Brooklyn... Lesleigh Hershkowitz FROM:

    Hi Michael,

    And they were used to queueing for hours,
    yourself not so much.
    No, not usually at a place like Woolworths, on a Monday morning.

    Beware those Monday mornings. Think of all those
    easterners, and how they were watching the clock
    tick down all Sunday.

    It was the only time I had an experience like this, other times the line
    was much shorter. The novelty of shopping at Woolworths, so soon after
    the wall came down made for the longer lines.

    It's one of these techno-nerdy things anyway. (G)
    Also important for people with eyes, which of
    course I'm not particularly.
    Mine work, tho not 20/20.

    Add an extra zero here or there, and that
    might be applicable to me.

    Mine aren't that bad yet. Sometimes fuzzy but overall, working.

    Definitely - we visited that Sanssouci place,
    and it wasn't as over the top as one might
    expect. Friedrich der Gross in many ways wasn't
    as gross as many think. It wasn't his fault
    that the Nazis adopted him as an ancestor.
    He was just the one that happened to be picked. (G)

    Well, he was a massive imperialist, a homosexual,
    and might have liked Wagner if Wagner had been
    born during his lifetime.

    Not the kind of guy I'd like to befriend tho.

    Especially since the Dodgers moved out of town 60 years ago.
