My Last Hurrah For These!

I have been procrastinating for several weeks because I wanted to make a batch of cookies that I haven't done for many years. 2014 to be exact! Today I kicked my starter and did it! 144 cookies later (12 dozen) and totally whipped, I want to present these to you. Since I didn't have any colorful sparkles or squeezable icings, they are plain except for some raw sugar sprinkles. Have you ever had a Lorna Doone cookie? These are similar in flavor and texture. Yum!

Some of these just don't belong...

So I ate them!

After the big cleanup, I packed my 50 year old tools away for another day, another person to use. I will admit some of the recipes look good!

Practice

Getting ready for upcoming holidays by practicing my Spritz cookie skills. No decorating supplies on hand here. I haven't made these in about 50 years! Old press tool still works - old lady works too. These are plain butter.
