Evidently I was grumpy on the phone with my sister last night

She said if I didn't quit she would give me a puppy & virtual cookies. I told her "You think sending a fat woman on a diet in a bad mood a picture of your cookies is going to make me feel better? I could eat the whole thing!" Here is a photo of one of her trays she makes for Christmas gifts. Aren't they pretty? She starts baking cookies in October.http://s1016.photobucket.com/albums/af285/MelissaDallas/?action=view&current=LindysCookieTray.jpg

They look wonderful, but did you get the puppy?

She was just threatening (thank God). Although my poor lonely

dog would probably like it. He still misses his buddy who died in November. Just can't afford another right now.

I think I spot the old "Cherry Winks" in that photo, I love them.

The ones with the jam? Thumbprint cookies from the old Betty Crocker cookbook

I adore them. Been making them since we were little. It is really hard to find clear cherry jelly to put in them now, but that is my favorite.
