Maybe you are too young. Maybe no one ever told you. Or maybe you don’t want to know.
Thanks to Rose McKormick Brandon’s blog entry today, I remembered all over again.
Her blog is “Listening to my Hair Grow”
Tody she wrote about the Jewish suffering during World War Two. She included several sites for more information. I’m putting the link for one right here. Check it out. You will never be the same.

I used to eat these by the panful. Now I use my God-given sense of self-control and eat one at a time. So can you. Make a coffee and nibble the edges slowly…make it last! A Weight Watchers member enjoys every bit of their food and plans wisely…….
Makes 48 servings
12 large graham crackers about 5″by 2 1/2″
1/2 pound butter
1 cup brown sugar lightly packed
1 cup almonds ,slivered
Line a cookie sheet (which has edges!) with parchment paper. Break the crackers along score lines. Each large cracker should make 4 smalller ones. Place crackers on cookie sheet.
Melt the butter in a saucepan and add brown sugar. Let boil for 2 minutes. Spread this mixture over the crackers. Sprinkle almonds (or other nuts) over top. If you don’t care about the calories…and at this point why would you…add a few chocolate chips.
Bake at 350F for 7 minutes. Let cool. Break apart and store in cookie tins. It is wise to separate layers with parchment paper.
