https://skandibaking.com/kanelsnegle-danish-cinnamon-buns/
Kanelsnegle (Danish Cinnamon Buns)
Kanelsnegle, also called onsdagssnegle or "Wednesday snails," are a
staple in Denmark. This recipe lets you bake them to your own
preference, whether you like them American-style (aka super gooey) or
crispy.


https://skandibaking.com/frosnapper-danish-pastry-twists/
Frøsnapper (Danish Pastry Twists)
A twisted, crispy, flaky, and sweet pastry, sprinkled with sesame and
poppy seeds. What could be better? These are delicious for breakfast
or as an afternoon pick-me-up!


You need to wash your hands, not because of ugly smells like I first
thought, but because of stick frosting (a much better reason).

Re: [MBZ] Fiat vs Tesla

2024-03-25 Thread Jim Cathey via Mercedes
I spent a weekend chauffeuring an ailing Tesla owner around, and it
was a decent enough car.  I think it could satisfy 90+% of my driving
needs.  (Around town, charge at home overnight.)  But I'd never let it
park inside, and they're far too expensive.  Indeed, _any_ new-ish vehicle
is far too expensive, and a well-used Tesla, like any EV, is probably
no bargain at all, regardless of price.

But a Tesla and a beater pickup truck could well satisfy ALL of my driving
needs.

[MBZ] Fiat vs Tesla

2024-03-25 Thread Allan Streib via Mercedes
Was in Denmark last week visiting family. It's a small country and I was paying 
for the trip out of my own pocket so I rented the smallest cheapest car listed, 
which was a Citroen C1 but I ended up being given a Fiat 500. It's actually not 
a bad little car for buzzing around in but is not going to win any drag races. 
It was made a little more fun to drive by having a 6-speed manual transmission. 
As James May said, the fun thing about a small underpowered car is that you can 
drive them at the limit of their performance all the time. I woudn't mind 
having one but it would be tough to swallow paying >$16k for a new one. It does 
have reasonably comfortable room for 4 but is so small that it doesn't have 
much other utility. Though people do apparently pull small trailers with them 
as I saw a lot of them around (and other cars of similar size) with tow 
hitches. That would be really unusual to see here in the USA.

My cousin drives an A-class Mercedes diesel. His youngest son has a new Tesla 
Model Y which I also got to drive. I have never driven a Tesla or any EV other 
than a golf cart so that was interesting. They are nice enough cars but I don't 
think I'd want one in the USA. Distances are too long and charging points still 
too sparse at least in the rural midwest where I live.
