Love the doll. My uncle owned three bakeries and I watched him make bagels by hand when I was a child. You can't imagine the delight in getting to eat a bagel that is still warm from the baker's oven.
ooooh bagels. yep, it's about that time of Pesach where the bread cravings kick in. I miss my cinnamon toast!!
