No, we did not get hit by a freak snow storm.

These are the infamous Jungbauer potato dumplings --- THE most important part of a Jungbauer Thanksgiving dinner.


Father and son bond over the art of making the perfect dumpling.

On my side of the family, the only real holiday culinary tradition is trash . . .

This is the "trash" that Gramma Stands always brought to family gatherings along with her ginger-soy veggie dip. The tradition continues.


Today, however there was something even more appetizing ---- served chilled at 46 degrees but under a 60 degree sunny broiler:

Steve's brother Mike joined us from Minnesota with most of his family: Vicki, Aubrey, Ariel and Caleb. Add Eric, Angela and Gramma Bev and we had an even dozen.

Who ya callin' a Turkey?

Dear Jungbauer Family,
I have been researching my family for the past couple of years but came to a standstill when I got to my great-grandmother. She was Annastasia Jungbauer living in PA, but when I spotten those Thanksgiving dumplings I couldn't believe my eyes! My father had them every Sunday and I grew up with them, too. I'd be very greatful for any information on the Jungbauer history. I think my great-grandmother was born in Austria. Thank you in advance. Pamela

Not suer if this ties in or will help anyone but I know that my Great Grandfather (Edmund) was married in Lilienfeld Austria before coming to the states (PA)

I'm just wondering where your family is located, or if you have any ties to the twin Cities Jungbauers. We seem to be eight billion strong here.
