I just realized that I forgot to share this recipe with you all! It’s one of the scrumptious dishes my friend Jana spoiled us with during our June visit to her family’s home…shd doubled the recipe, of course, to feed all 13 of us!

Danish Meatballs

  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. pepper
  • 1 egg, slightly beaten
  • 1 TB grated onion
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup soft breadcrumbs

Dill Sauce (this is SOOOOO good! especially spooned over a side of mashed red potatoes w/garlic!)

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp dried dill
  • 1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt

  1. Thanks for asking! It’s going great! On Thursday, I really turned a corner and started feeling so much better, really didn’t even need the anti-itch cream past noon that day. Was feeling well enough to go camping with friends over the weekend…right now I’m pretty much at the flaking process…all the dry, patchy places are flaking off. Nothing itches! Woo-hoo!

    Thanks for your prayers!

  2. Thanks, Jessica! It’s so nice to have this online support, when you can’t get out of the house for the misery and ugliness…you can always get to your girlfriends (and guy friends!) online!

    I appreciate all of you!
