LE SIGH... I miss soft pretzels. They are seriously the one thing I miss. If I want them I always have to make my own from scratch. Yummy and a fun project, but not quite as convenient as grabbing one at a stand. Anyhoot... you got a little shout-out on my blog today! Thanks again for all your help!
