Family Tradition These cookies (a simple recipe with anise seed from a Grandma Leif ?)...this tradition of the women making, baking, frosting and decorating them...has been in my family for over 100 years. My great grandma grew up doing it....my grandmother did....my mother did.....I did and now Emma does. I remember sitting at my Nana's table every night for a week after supper decorating cookies. My Nana was very particular about how each cookie was decorated and how many of each cookie was placed in each box. My family would give the shirt size wrapped boxes to everyone they knew plus family. That was a lot of people! Not to mention all the cookies that I "required". Now, after doing this for so many years, I understand ...as does Emma already.... why the elder women in my family never ate them. You get pretty sick of them. I still enjoy the "trees" though. They have always been my favorite ones. They just taste better! Most Preferable "I am still convinced that a good, simple, homemade cookie is preferable to all the store-bought cookies one can find." ~ James Beard Similar posts: ready steady cook uk chefs slow cooker lasagna induction cooktop ranges how to cook sirloin tip roast beef how to cook chicken for babies classes in cooking how to cook pickled pork diabetes cook vanilla no bake cookies how to cook a prime rib roast in the oven |
