Sounds delicious - are you going to be a spoon tease or share the recipe/

I have a very interesting woodcut image that shows several men sitting
at a table and sharing lebkuchen. The lebjuchen is round in shape and
there is an image of Christ on the cross obviously molded onto it. One
gentleman has sliced the lebkuchen and is handing a piece to one of
the other men. The thing that has always struck me about the image is
that the lebkuchen is about the size of a modern pizza and the slice
that has been taken out is in a classic "wedge" shape. I giggle to
myself whenever I see it that they are eating Jesus pizza.
