It's winter in Wisconsin...

Why does the car always seem to warm up just when you get to your destination?

A cruel reality.

Larsen's put's their heart into every Kringle.

This special is running online and in our retail store. These delicious cookies are included in any in stock flavor we have. How fun is that?

 

Last sale of the year on Kringle packages

As we near the end of the year two things are certain in Wisconsin. One is "it will get colder and darker". The other? People eat more Kringle.

Kringle warms the heart.

Kringle connects family, friends, and neighbors.

Kringle is a tradition for many holidays for many people.

That's why people buy more Kringle...

Because we don't sell flash lights, heaters, or sun lamps we thought we would help out our Krinlge loving customers by putting our most popular packages on sale.

Simply click on the link below to and bring some Kringle spirit into your home.

Dipsticks

This really has nothing to do with Bakery but it does have to do with the life of a baker.

The transmission on our Van has been slipping when it has been really cold. Logically, I check the fluid and it is low. No problem, just get some fluid and fill it up....however, here is the really weird part. The dipstick has markings to tell you it is low in fluid. The dipstick has markings to tell if it is low when the car engine is warm; it has markings to tell you where the fluid should be when it is hot. But...BUT it doesn't tell you how much fluid you should put in! And worse on the dipstick in BIG BOLD, ALL CAPS it states "DO NOT OVER-FILL".

You know you need to put some in, just not sure how much.

After decades of car manufacturing, the markings can't denote if you are 1/2 quart or a full quart or a teaspoon low?

Does anyone else out there find this a bit confusing? A bit frustrating?

Five Years

I get all sorts of questions asked posed to me all the time.

From the bakery.
"Is this fresh?"

From my family.
"Can I have some money, Dad? Puuuhleeeeze."

From myself even.
"I'm tired, maybe some take out tonight?"

The answer to these questions is another question. "What will the outcome look like if I continue to answer the question the same way for five years". This pretty much clears up any gray areas and really clarifies things for me.

From the bakery.
If I were to misrepresent the bakery I sold, we would be out of business in five years.

From my family.
Is it really in my best interest to just "give" money to my kids for the next five years?

From myself.
If I continue to make take-out part of my routine, what am I going to feel like five years from now?

Anticipation

Do you remember the Heinz Ketchup commerical? The one with the song "Anticipation" playing the background?

Today we are picking up a foreign exchange student at the airport.We have been planning her arrival for quite some time now.

As we are rushing around today to get ready for her; I took some time to enjoy the anticipation of her being here. Sometimes in the rush of things I forget that the anticipation is just as much fun as the event itself.

It happens in the bakery all the time. People who came here as a child re-visiting. The excitement of planning a first birthday. Grown up kids ordering a anniversary cake for their parents. They are simply having fun.

Go out today and enjoy the anticipation of something. Get a donut, a hot cup of coffee, or give someone a hug!
