Lenten Pretzels

Today I made my very first batch of homemade pretzels! I needed to bring a snack for my American Heritage Girls unit, so since it is Lent, I decided to make pretzels, which are a traditional Lenten food. I used this recipe http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Soft-Pretzels-II/Detail.aspx

I also included a little bit of information on how pretzels became, and how the name originated. I got the information here http://www.catholiceducation.org/articles/religion/re0535.html

Here are a few pictures :)
