It's been a LONG while...

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!
