 This post was inspired by and dedicated to rraspberry.  Here is the recipe.

3 Eier
200 g Zucker
1/2 Zitronengelb ( Schale einer 1/2 Zitrone)
Pr. Nelken
Pr. Kardamon
8 g Zimt
Pr. Salz
50 g Zitronat
150 g gehobelte Mandeln
250 g Mehl

Zuckerwasser aus:
1 EL Zucker und
1 EL Wasser
 

Zubereitung
Eier und Zucker schaumig rühren

Restliche Zutaten nach und nach unter rühren dazugeben bis es ein geschmeidiger Teig wird.
Anschließend mit einem Teelöffel, 2 Teelöffel Teigmasse
auf die Oblaten geben. Diese nun auf ein gef. Blech legen
ca. 12 Min. bei 210 Grad mittlere Schiene

Nach dem backen nun die Lebkuchen mit dem Zuckerwasser bestreichen.

 I used walnuts instead of almonds, since that is what I had laying arround.  I also used Whole Wheat flour because the bleached white stuff is nasty.

Getting ready to get started.

Ingredients sitting on the cutting board.

All mixed up

Final stage of waiting for the glaze to harden.

They turned out quite tasty, but I think when I make them again, I'll put in a bit more of the spices.

I have returned from battle from the most fiendish of fiends, the raspberry bushes.  And not only those, but the even more vicious black raspberry bushes . . .  You must understand that the blushes of the black rasperries are at the least twice as spiky and spiny as those of your average red raspberry, and are therefore at least twice as painful.  The flesh of my arms and hands has been sufficiently gouged, let me just say. 

As I plucked the succulent berries from their cradle of thorns, I realized how like people, and even life, these raspberries are.  The black raspberries are a great deal sweeter, juicier, and less bitter than the red . . .  but they're also a lot more work to acquire.  Yet the reward is sweeter.

That is all I wanted to say.
