I bought 3 tubs of cookie dough from a fund raising event at my daughter's center, but they just don't taste quite as good as "from scratch" cookies.

Thank ...I love a busy kitchen!!! It speaks of love!<br />Thank you for the tried and true recipe from your childhood. I am going to make up the dough and bake those Christmas Eve morning for the grands to ice and decorate that evening when we have our Family Celebration.<br />I haven't said anything on my blog - but I covet the prayers of you and John......my brother, Lonnie, is having heart surgery Friday. Louis Dean will take over the Beauty Shop run so Deanie and I can be at the hospital with him and his wife. Michele is a private type of person......plus she recently lost her step dad and just the year before her mom - and now her husband is in critcal condition. Her mom died of a heart attack as she was IN the hospital preparing to go home so she could gain strength for additional surgery.<br />I probably should of put this in a private message but it is late and i am tired. Love and prayers for you and yours ALWAYS from the Chapmans in Texas!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09623820316056914224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-68835531796885800992014-12-18T01:29:22.959-05:002014-12-18T01:29:22.959-05:00V and I baked all day today, Vee!

I made a gluten free gingerbread cookie from a King Arthur Flour website recipe that came out great--I was so happy as I felt bad my grandsons could not enjoy Christmas cookies in prior years. We also made regular gingerbread men, spritz and Italian fig cookies. Next I'll make the 7 layer rainbow cookies and rugelach. I always say I am cutting back but I never do--it's too much fun to make and eat all the cookies!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-20422751738669938892014-12-17T23:46:55.374-05:002014-12-17T23:46:55.374-05:00It looks like you accomplished a whole lot!

My kitchen always looks like a disaster when I'm cooking or baking. I see your yummy 'Dora's cookies' are almost identical to my Brown Sugar Cookies (posted on MGCC)...also a recipe my kids brought home from their friend's.

She started right off (tired of waiting for Kati and I to get ready) and just kept on going. <i>We</i> helped <i>her</i>. And we washed all the dishes. She said it was a <i>wonderful</i> day because she got to do all the fun stuff! <br /><br />Baking with someone else is such fun! Isn't it nice that your sister now lives near enough that you can share such things?
