I made pretzels this weekend with my Mom. After the intial difficulty, kneading, rolling and shaping the dough got to be pretty fun! While making the pretzels, I thought of Johann Tetzel (Tetzel=Pretzel. They are the same in my head.).
F.Y.I. : Johann Tetzel was a Dominican preacher who sold indulgences way back in the 1400s in order to get some "DOUGH" to pay for the construction of St. Peter's Basilica.
Just another fun fact for ya.
