I love cookies :)

Today I am creating a recipe book from my mom's recipe box of yumminess. I have determined that the best way to tell the quality of the recipe is to notice how dirty the card is. The dirtier the better. I thought that since I am having so much fun thinking about cookies and not eating them, you should join me. Here is my very favorite cookie recipe. My mom has labeled them "Grandma's Snickerdoodles" but I'm not exactly sure whose grandma this is referring to. Is it my grandma? or her grandma? or Is it just a general term "grandma" because the cookies are so good? Well for now, the title remains a mystery, but I think it's safe to assume that at some point, somewhere, somebody's grandma made these cookies. Enjoy!

  1. Look at me making a comment. :) Love the blog. Can't wait to read more. Can't wait for the next Hunger Games book to come out either.And if you find out which Grandma is responsible for this recipe, let me know.
    Can't wait for you to get up here to BYU either. We're always here if you need us. You most likely won't, but still. We are here.
