So, life got in the way of me enjoying myself and keeping updated. Things had gotten quite crazy at home and I got busy. Well, tonight I made a recipe for a bake sale that brought back some great childhood memories. It is by NO MEANS a clean recipe and I wouldn't have even thought to pull it out if not for the charity aspect. The place that I work out is hosting a bake sale/rummage sale to help a family that attends recover from a house fire and to help with the recent store relief that is going on in our area. I decided that while I can't donate cash I can sure donate baked goods. I have vivid memories of making these cookies with my Grandma when I was little. I specifically remember watching her as she spooned them out of the pot to cool. I hope if you make them you enjoy them as much as I have and make some awesome memories in the process!
