We gotta die of something. I say a coronary caused by eating something called Apple Donut Bombs sounds fun to me. In the name of all that is sacred about Christmas, I offer myself in sacrifice. Jana -- pile it on me.

I'm killing time in the Salt Lake airport. Nothing better to do than to get down to the threads I usually don't have time for. And with all this lousy airport food surrounding me, you're making me hungry!

 

[JanaBanana]

Im terrified of flying! Eeek

 

[dvdelf]

These sound similar to the famous Apple Donuts from the dutch bakery by my parent's house in Sussex, NJ. Whenever my mother calls, she asks me what I miss from NJ and these donuts are near the top of my list of NJ foods I miss....Taylor ham, egg and cheese on a hard roll, Apple Donuts, pizza, sub sandwich....sigh....I miss NJ.

 

[Jeff Westover]

isn't that the 2nd time today we've heard this about NJ, MrsH? Quick, someone get this woman a pizza!

 

[MrsH]

Just a little homesick....

 

[Jeff Westover]

I hear you. I can see my neighborhood here from the airport. Wednesday night seems a million years away. Man, I hate traveling for work. I hate it.

Maybe we can make a trade...Jana...You send me samples of all of the items you have listed recipes for...Just for the sake of professionalism of course...I'd like to be sure that all of the items listed are good enough for my friends hear in Christmastown...I'm willing to taste all of them for the good of the site...don't try and talk me out of this I want to do it for all of you...Jana??? I'll Private message my address to you, again...Only for the good of the site...I'm sure I'll get no personal satisfaction out of eating those luscious apple bombs...Or the punch...In fact...Jana...Make a batch of everything you've ever made...We can't be too careful!!!
