Picture 140, 3-20-08, Hamentashen

Purim is about to start, and the bakery near me has the best hamentashen in the world. The favorite in our house is poppy seed, with raspberry & apricot following close behind. This bakery also makes an almond one, but they were out yesterday!

 

Purim also means that it is my grandfather's birthday. He turns 105 today.

 

Some people get the luck of the draw in the genes department!

 

I will try to make some gluten free hamentashen for Daniel today. I'll add up the carbs for the recipe & divide them by the number of hamentashen I make.

 

Diabetes (and celiac) makes life a little more difficult. Diabetes often makes life a little shorter, depending on one's ability to control blood sugar. Hopefully soon there will be a cure, and Daniel will have a good chance to live to 105, like his great grandpa.
