Anna, my late wife, introduced me to stollen. She was German on her father's side and typical American mix on her mother's.

There goes the diet! Why does everything that tastes so good have to have so many calories or so much salt?
I hope you don't have to share TOO much of it, Gabi.

Lovely Gabi. That would make anyone want to find out what stollen is, and how it tastes. You captured the essense of taste, and the way it can bring times, places, people and feelings back so strongly.

I have tasted stollen, though not on someone's lips. Well, it could be worse: it might have been second hand via a beard!

Gabi-san, it was a tradition in my family when I was young to
have stollen on Christmas morning.

A lingering haiku. Our family tradition was also this.
You captured it nicely and nudged a few memories of mine as well.
