  1. These sound and look so good. You should have a bakery of your own. I bet Mey's grandson will LOVE these !!

  2. Mei's grandson's nickname is Porkchop. He loves my cookies and calls me Grandma Linda. Isn't that sweet! Sugar cookies are the only cookies he likes. He will be the only grandson I will sort of have so he's set for cookies for as long as I'm able to bake.

    1. I remember you used to have another "grandson"
      when you lived in LI. He was a neighbor I think. He must be missing your yummy cookies.

    2. Never hear from them. When we moved I sent cookies up to them for Christmas- never got a thank you or a Merry Christmas. Just the way people are
