I think I’m going to actually purchase your Cookbook right now
When I click on the link it doesn’t say what all recipes are included in the cook book
Oh never mind, I found out it. Love what you have selected to share for your favorite recipient.
@@jonmarvel358 If you click on "Learn more about this item" on the right side you'll see the recipes 😀
@@CelebratingAppalachia thank you so much Tipper for the reply back. I found where you were talking about and saw all the things you include in your cookbook. I’m getting ready to purchase this now as a Christmas gift for my Mom. I just turned her onto your channel yesterday and she loves it
I love handwritten recipes and have a book that I place them in once I’ve written them In my recipe book. I had a recipe for wedding cookies given to me in 1976. The lady recently passed and I sent a card to her daughter and included this handwritten recipe in the envelope. I cherish these recipes but I knew she would cherish it even more😊
That is so sweet 😀
My sister framed a recipe written by our grandmother. She died before we were born. It hangs in my kitchen I love it.
What a treasure and sweet memory to share with a friend when their loved one passed.
I LOVE wedding cookies! I have not had a good one since my grandma went home to Glory.
my mom was from eastern europe. she always made sugar cookies with grated orange rind which i still feel is the best. the flavor takes me back to my childhood and memories of her. she always used butter and only cut them out using an overturned glass or cup. just plain without decorations was just perfect for all five children in the family. if i am not baking myself the next best thing is watching others do it. thanks for this video, ladies. cheers!

When my father was in the South Pacific during the war he passed the time by making a beautiful ring out of a steel nut. He inlayed it with some mother of pearl that he found and it came out magnificent. You would never know what he used to make it. I still have the ring. - Farmer John
What a treasure!
Such a genuine and honest conversation with all of you! I cried tears of joy!!
Thank you 😀 So glad you enjoyed it!
A tradition for me. As a kid I’d make the cookies and then my sister and I would decorate them. With icing and colored sugar, sprinkles and anything else we had. I continued this with my kids. Now they do it also, well my girls do. Now none of them live close enough to me so I do it alone. But my husband helps by eating them. Lol. Great memories.
My sister and i used to make sugar cookies with our children i had 4 she had 2. We were brownie and girl scout leaders and these little ones all just appeared at our house with a bag of powdered sugar to help make several batches of the cookie dough. I always felt kinda sad that the other parents did not get to enjoy this special time with all the scouts and sibilings. And our children always remember the fun we all had. Now i cook with my grandchildren!
I so enjoy hearing your stories Tipper. Loved seeing the pictures of the girls when they were little making cookies. Y’all have so much fun together and making memories to cherish for years to come. All the cookies look delicious, but this is the first time I’ve ever heard someone making a sideburn cookie. 😆 Now that’s creative! Elvis would be proud! 😆 Y’all are just the best! Thank y’all for sharing!
Thanks so much 😀
I love sugar cookies and I use a recipe that’s on a card with my grandmothers writing. I am going to try something different this year and make with lemon zest and a lemon glaze. I do love the orange ones. And yes those are the snuff glasses I have that were my kids great grandmothers. Your girls are so cute and funny. ❤️ Forgot to add that I am 77 and my grandmother has been gone for 21 years.
Miss Patricia... have copies of ur grandmas recipe made....they can make copies front and back
Too if that's necessary.
Then buy sheets of laminating plastic. Staples carries it AND they might do it for you....cover ea recipe card and hive to ur family.
I needed 7, I made 12....since then I have daughters in love.....so THEY got a copy.....my girls
Put theirs right near their station on the wall 💝💝💝
Thank you for your suggestion. That will be a great gift. ❤️
Although nothing was said about it, as I watch the interaction between the three of you, I get the feeling you are all keenly aware that the family dynamic will change dramatically in 3 months. It's as if you are reliving old memories while you can before the big change occurs. Exciting times ahead for Corie, but it will be a big adjustment for the whole family. The love you share is undeniable and is so nice to see. Thanks for posting, Tipper.
Wonderful video. Tipper your kitchen videos are really well done. Not that your others aren’t, but when you’re in that kitchen with your eyes talking right to the camera it feels like you’re talking directly to the viewer, as it should be.
Good job!
I appreciate that-thank you!
My husband's grandmother made big soft sugar cookies with buttermilk in the recipe. He loved the ones you put a thumbprint in the center and filled with strawberry jam! We haven't made them in a while--we have her handwritten recipe which didn't really give an exact amount of flour because you could make drop cookies or rolled cookies to which you "add more flour but not too stiff".
This is really something I had 3 children 2 alive today but only 1 would bake or cook with me He is the best baker and cooker now !!! Your Special with 2 girls to work with !!! Am going to check out the necklace of Katies !!!
I had to laugh when I heard you talk about second guessing why you had thought making cookies with your little girls was a good idea! 🤣 At one time, I was right there with you! My girls and I have always made a birthday cake for Jesus, which we have with ice cream for dessert on Christmas Day. Over the years, we've made all sorts of cake for His birthday cake, but this year we are going bake to basics: a vanilla white cake with white frosting. It's a special time of making special memories. Merry Christmas to all of you! God bless!😊
We do a muffin for Christmas morning as a birthday cake 😀 I should have thought to do a whole cake like you!
The appalachion accent reminds me a ton of the areas i lived a while in (and was born) in Louisiana. Quite similar in many ways. Im basically home when I listen to y'all talk 👍🙂.
Also sidenote, burned my fairshare of sugar cookies 😅
😀 Glad we remind you of home!
Thanks Mrs. Tipper, me and my wife will do this with our 8 year old this year, we will use your vid for referance!! Merry Christmass
That sounds so fun!! I hope you all enjoy the cookies and the process 😀
Those silver decorative balls are called dragées. My mother was never a baker (other than from cake mixes), but when I was a kid, our neighbor, Mrs. Stambaugh, made Christmas cookies from scratch and always brought us a fruitcake tin or two filled with those cookies. I remember Mom wondering if we kids should be allowed to eat the rum balls, as they were not baked and thus did have a bit of a kick to them.
Those look so good mam. I like to dunk them in my coffee. My wife puts ginger in them. Really makes them tasty. Be safe and god bless you for all your hard work making these videos. That and raising children and lovin’ a husband is a full time job. ❤️🌲🌲🌲❤️
Tipper, those handwritten cookbooks sure are priceless, I have some of my Grandmaw's and my Aunt's and Great Grandmothers... I have not liked any sugar cookie recipes I have tried, I cannot wait to try yours. Merry Christmas! Thank you. Oh, I have Katie's website saved, I do want to order one of her creations as well as get soaps from Corey. I have married Katie and my son Cody in my heart,
Baking around the holidays brings back so many happy times. I remember each person by the special goodies they would fix. I call those messes... happy messes with time shared with loved ones. Mom and I would even have baking marathons! Cooking down to the time people were arriving. Here is to a season filled with love and lots of time spent making memories.
Happy messes-I like that-than you for sharing the phrase 😀
🥰 You video titles are very humble, considering the vast content of each and every one them. Loved it as always! ❤ Thank you! 🙂👍🙏🤗❤🎄
Thank you so much!
Katie, my husband made our wedding rings out of silver coins! His is a half dollar, and mine is a quarter! You can still see the dates. I treasure my homemade wedding ring much more than a ring we could have purchased!
Sharon...that is amazing about your wedding rings. That is a treasure that can be cherished a lifetime.
What a lovely memory you have and the tradition you are keeping alive in your family.
Thank you for watching 😀
What fun! My family makes cookies every year, as well, and it’s always a blast! I have twin nieces that live n Florida. One has one son, and the other has two sons. Two of the boys are grown, but they still love to bake cookies. Family traditions are so important. ❣️🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼❣️
Thank you Judy 😀
You 3 girls together are hilarious. Thanks for the entertainment.
I have been wanting my family’s recipe for sugar cookies. My grandma made. Unfortunately long lost. But the recipe had orange peel! I am adopting yours. Thank you so much!
This was the recipe I grew up making with my momma except no orange rind. Momma, bless her, can bake but not so good at cooking 🤷but every Christmas season we would make these and then other recipes with her cookie press.
If we didn't just ice them with a confectioner sugar icing, then we would use colored sugar. We would lightly baste the cookies with a little milk to get the sugar to stick.
Thank you for sharing your family tradition and stories.
I don't know which was better, the yummy recipe or the story telling. They were both great. Really reminded of some wonderful memories.
So glad you enjoyed it!!
I enjoyed this and granny sounds so sweet, so beloved. I can tell I'm getting years on me because I'm inclined to do like your beloved granny does and just tell people what I'm thinking (especially if it's something nice). I love that bit how she told Katie she just loves looking at them (they ARE beautiful). THANK YOU for this sweet video.
Such a great tradition. We use to do sugar cookies at Christmas time. 🎄. Thanks for sharing . God bless
Your videos are always so comforting. Thank you for inviting us into your kitchen today! I enjoyed listening to you all sharing memories and seeing the old pics of the girls. I'm only a few years older than them, living at home with my parents, and still love icing cookies together. Such sweet times! Thank you, Tipper! I just love your channel!
Thank you so much!
Hearing the stories about the rings brought back sweet memories. When my mama and daddy married in 1960 he made my mama's wedding ring from a dime.
I lost my mam-ma when I was 16. That was 20 years ago. Watching you make all these nummy recipes, brings me back to my childhood standing in the kitchen, wearing her heels making cookies
I just love you people. You feel like family. You have a beautiful family. Beautiful hearts and spirits. May God bless you always.
😀 Thank you so much! Glad we feel like family 😀
I loved watching you and the girls make your cookies. In my home growing up we didn’t make cookies but mother always made this delicious candy called Grandma Foust candy, made from her Grandma’s recipe. It was a delicious melt in your mouth, sugary recipe with black walnuts. When we were grown and out of the house every so often mom would make each of us a big tin full of that candy for Christmas. Last year I made it for my two sisters and I just now found myself starting to cry from the memory of my mother and her candy. That’s truly what it is about is the wonderful memories.
So true! That candy sounds wonderful-I love anything with black walnuts 😀
When we were little our mother did this same thing with my sister and I. We would ice them and then momma would patiently pick out the blue small balls from the variegated jar of decorations for all the angel eyes, silver balls for their wings, silver balls for reindeer collars. Red balls for reindeer noses ETC. Momma also made red dough and left half white. We made snakes and momma would wrap the two colors together to make candy canes!! BEST MEMORIES EVER ❤️. My sister was murdered in 1978 at the age of 28. She was 4yrs older then me. This brought back such wonderful memories for me. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful memory of you and yours 💕🙏🙏
Katie is so passionate about her jewelry making! I just love that!! ❤
Thank you ladies. Such a nice thing to do with your mother. And I suppose you also get to enjoy them later. Such a treat.
Those cookies look wonderful. Awesome memories. Snickerdoodles are my favorite at Christmas time ♥️
Very enjoyable watching the three of you together. Sweet memories captured.
Glad you enjoyed it 😀
Just want to say how much i like your speckled bowl. Always enjoy your videos.👍🏼💙
Thank you so much!
So fun to watch, I use to do the same with my children when they were young. My son still at age 36 asks me to make the dough and I take it to his house to roll out and cut and decorate so he has the mess at his house.
😀
Thanx for sharing Ladies, nothing is better than Mother and Daughters sharing life's finer moments.
😀 Thank you Kevin!
My mother in law..was an amazing cook she had her recipes..wrote down on different things but all in one book.. love them
Your videos are just real life. I love that! The cookies looked so good! Enjoyed watching Corie and Katie and their different personalities. 🙂🙂. Corie just quietly making her cookies, and Katie with all of the cookie narrative. Katie look up fondue. It doesn't go along with cookies, but I bet it would be something y'all would like to do. 🙂🙂. Enjoyed the video so much!! 🎄❤️🎄
I love to hear y'all talk and joke around... feels like I'm there with you.
Tipper, I really hope you are well... I hear just the slightest bit of stress in your voice. 🙏 ♥
😀 Thank you Ron! I'm really good-you probably heard the scratchiness from all the laughter LOL 😀
A boy who liked me when I was 13 years old (1972) made a ring just like yours ! I still have it
Sweet!!
"Why did I think this was a good Idea?", precious!
I had just one ADHD little boy and always tried to make cookies with him and I always thought why did I think this was a good idea. He's 34 now and he's actually a very good cook not necessarily a good Baker though self-professed by him.
😀
When my 2 girls were young our tradition was them making cut out sugar cookies with their Dad every Christmas. I volunteered for cleanup! We used an old Betty Crocker recipe called Mary's Sugar Cookies. Great video. Your girls are precious. Love the channel!
Just like my mother & sisters used to do it. 🎄❄
My daddy whom was 97 years old died just 2 months ago. My family is me, my son and grandson. It's really hard to get into the Christmas spirit. My daddy would have not wanted me to not do Christmas. So listening to you and your girls stories help out so MUCH. MAY GOD BLESS YOU . It seems that we grew up in the same family. I think it has to do with were you were raised . GIVE ME THE COUNTRY MOUNTAIN LIFE ANY DAY....
I'm so sorry for the loss of your sweet daddy! I am glad helped you remember what he would have wanted 😀
Up until a couple years ago my older sister made decorated cookies for every holiday. She always made plenty to gift. Due to her health she has passed down the tradition to her granddaughter. She and I are both diabetic so our eating cookies is limited. But her cookies were always amazing. Thanks for sharing yours and your girls cookie tradition.
I have baked lots of things but hardly ever baked cookies... It is time to bake some Sugar Cookies!! So fun watching your videos. Thanks for the Sugar Cookies Recipe!
Hope you enjoy them 😀
I made Granny Wilson's Sugar Cookies today! Mine aren't "real pretty" but they sure taste good! Thanks again for the recipe...🙂
@@jeffpruitt963 I'm so glad you liked them!
I love me a heap of sugar cookies! Thank you girls! Your Seat🏔tle friend! Happy Holidays and God Bless 🥰🙏🏽
Cool ring!!!
Thank you Lisa 😀
🥰
This is my motivational Video.... I love to cook, but cookies not so much ! My husband loves cookies ...thanks you inspire me ! !
You are so welcome!
I have several old handwritten recipe books from my mama, grandmother and other family members. They are priceless! Now I want to make sugar cookies.
I'm from North Carolina (Piedmont area), and my mom would make candy every Christmas instead of cookies. I grew up learning how to make fudge and chocolate-covered peanut butter balls (like Buckeyes), peanut clusters, etc. I still make candy at Christmas. Carrying on the tradition since my mom passed away in February 2017 at age 60 from cancer. My mom hated baking cookies (she liked baking cakes since it was mix it up, put it in the oven, and wait until it's done). I'm self-taught with cookie baking. My favorite cookies to bake are homemade gingersnaps.
I wish I had grown up in the Appalachians. Maybe one day, I can retire there. I grew in the Piedmont. It's not the worst place. You can get to the mountains or the coast pretty easily.
Merry Christmas!
I have a notebook & some pieces my mama wrote recipes on. I treasure it, seeing her left-handed writing on paper still. This brought back wonderful memories! When our son was young, I would make a huge batch of sugar cookies and he loved to help decorate them. We'd divide them out in cute tins to give to family & neighbors each year. I haven't been able to do that for many years, but my sister will often say around Christmas how she misses her special sugar cookies! Blessings to y'all from VA! 💗🙏🎄🕯🍪🥛
Fondant is fun to put on cookies. My daughter and I love to cook together often. Great stuff!
I have my recipes that have been past on from my great grandma to my Nana and my mother... I worship these hand written recipes because of all the little notes written off to the side. The ones I treasure the most are.from my mom in her handwriting. They are great because she would write down as if she was talking to you face to face... GREAT MEMORIES.
This brings back memories of my 2 grand son’s and I making Christmas cookies.We did make a mess but I would enjoy us laughing and baking our cookies.They have grown up now but those memories are precious.We did make pizzas and gave them each their own pizza pans.Those pizzas were so good.I wish I could have them back as little boys and to share those wonderful times again.Your girls are so beautiful and smart.You have taught them well.God bless you and yours.
No matter how old they are...When a child bobs their head and shoulders back and forth after taking a bite, it means it is delicious.
Great recipe. Thanks for sharing your family cookies.
My pleasure 😊
Tipper, you must just bust at how proud you must be for your girls. They are amazing!
Yum, I can taste them from here Tipper.
😀 Thank you Donnie!
Really enjoyed this one brought back good memories of us three kids cutting out cookies and decorating them a lot of times mom cut out most of them and we just decorated but mom left us the scraps to like freestyle with and then she had to figure out how to cook little bird's nests with eggs in them and things like that so they were done and possibly edible. Usually they got too hard because we'd work too much flour into the dough and played with it too much but it was fun
Such good memories you have 😀
Side burn cookies? Lol Corey and Katy are such a hoot! My brother actually made a ring out of a silver spoon when, he was in elementary school. I think it was something he made in art class one year.
My late husband used to make rings from silver quarters and dimes he used a spoon he learned from his dad. I used to watch them make rings when I lived in Mexico, for a few years. Your cookies look delicious. My kids liked to decorate cookies as well, oh my goodness when they finished there were sprinkles everywhere! I make a Mexican spicy chocolate cookies, they are spicy from "guajillo" chili peppers. I found it in Pinterest, they warm the back of your throat, not your whole mouth. Until next time much love.
Always loved making cookies with my granny🥰 When she didn't have money for the fast sugar in the bottles she would take food color and granulated sugar and make the green and red❤️thanks for sharing great memories
My grandmother. Made suger cookies and chocolate oatmeal cookies around Christmas. They didn't last long. I can tell you that,, much. She always made a pumkin pie. A sweet potato pie and a lemon marange pie. My mother would help. Too we always eat good at Christmas. Some times instead of A turkey we would. Have tenderloin deer meat fried and biscuits and gravy. Man A living those were good days. I miss them days. Y'all have a good Christmas. God bless and take care,
That sounds like some good eating Duane 😀
so grateful yr granny.is still with you. god bless and protect you and yours.
My aunt and I made sugar cookies as children. She was only 3 years older than me. We did icing and all the colored sugar and things on top. It was the best fun. Oh I grew up to be a professional cake decorator. I did that for 25 years or so. I guess it's what got me started.
Precious memories, how the linger.... Some of my most cherished memories was going up to the old home place at Christmas and making sugar cookies and little baskets for the children's Sunday School. The smell of cookies is still on the back of my mind...
I made your Russian Tea this week and loved it. Thanks so much!
Glad you liked it!!
I admire your pride and enthusiasm for your culture. Although I don't think I would make any of your recipes. I grew up on a lot of that kind of cooking and don't want to revisit that food.
Like your wonderful cookies, the secret ingredient in my pecan pie is a bit of orange! I add about 1/8 teaspoon of zest and 1 tablespoon of triple sec. It doesn't make the pie taste like orange, but it cuts the sweetness a bit and adds a nice touch! When my son and daughter got old enough to help, they each wanted to choose the holiday treats that would become theirs to make each year. And woe be to me if I ever didn't make one of the usual treats! I could add something new, but never leave anything out!
When I was a child my Mom used to make tons of these cookies. She would take the old Charles Chip potato chip cans and fill several with sugar cookies. My favorite were the ones she topped with cinnamon/sugar.. They weren't the prettiest but definitely the tastiest!! Thanks for sharing! Brought back many good memories. My Mom passed 2 1/2 years ago almost making her 90th birthday...
Aww.. I did enjoy the stories you all told and the baking and decorating those special sugar cookies.. I think when I was growing up we made cowboy cookies.. you can find a recipe online.. but they had alot of flavor from all the ingredients and tasted so good. Making cookies is fairly easy and is always makes a nice sharable duty in the kitchen that is so fun!
I love drinking coffee and sitting and listening to yall. I thought Katie was gonna have to start making prosthetics for Cories cookies. Lol. Great stories. I feel like I know y'all. I like how Katie gets chatty when it's something she's passionate about. Thank you for the recipe Tipper ,and thanks for sharing your family with us .
So glad you enjoy our videos 😀
I love this! I have my Grandma's recipe box and often she didn't use actual measurements. I remember the first time I had my preschool niece and nephew over for a sleepover and we baked chocolate cookies. Oh, what a mess! Flour and such everywhere! They loved it. Now that they're in high school my niece and I make sugar cookies at Christmas. One time we ended up with a cookie that looked like a pork chop! We still laugh about that one.
I happened to come across this older video yesterday. My dad made 2 "money" rings when I was a baby; he made a ring from a quarter for my mom (my older sister now has it) and he made me a ring from a dime. I have a picture somewhere of my daughter wearing it when she was a baby. ❤️ I'm glad I happened across this video; cool to hear of other money rings out there. 🙂
I remember making cookies with my sisters. Can you imagine 5 giggly, silly scrappy girls all at once? It was so fun and some my favorite memories are the ones when we girls would all bake together. Thank you Tipper and girls for bringing us into your kitchen today. I had a blast!
Yall's sugar cookies look so good. I love genuine people like your Mother. Some people are different every time you see them,and you don't know how to take them. My Grandma used to buy snuff in those glasses. They're just the right size
There are many recipes for joy. We can all be the bakers of our own joy. Baking singing, writing, telling stories for our loved ones. Whatever you do it to bring joy to the ones you love. Yes,the recipe for joy is something I hope everyone will share this Holy season. Luke 2:11. Merry Christmas to all!
My husbands grandmother used to make a sugar cookie with cinnamon and lemon zest and they were so good. I was the only one who learned from her how to a make them and still make them today. My Mom made Apease butter cookies but I've never learned where the "apease" came from but she grew up in PA and her family was German so I assume it from one of those. She grew up not decorating with sugar icing but rather with a pecan or walnut piece as eyes. We are all drawn to the recipes we grew up.
Thank you so much for your channel. I grew up like you, I am in NC and all your videos remind me of growing up. I don't have my Mama or Mimi anymore, but watching your videos is like hearing them and going home. This just makes me so happy to watch.
You are so welcome! So glad I remind you of loved ones 😀
My mother made sugar cookies, with vanilla and almond extract, while we were at school.
We took cookies she had decorated to school for every child and the teacher. We were allowed to decorate some cookies for our family.
She also made fruitcake, apple strudel, springerle, hermits and pfefferneuse cookies.
So nice to see and hear three very pretty girls reminiscing about past Christmases while making Christmas cookies.
Thank you 😀
Take me home country road to the place where I belong...I can't stop watching your videos. Biscuits n Gravy video pulled me in.
Rodney my hubby ..has always at christmas with our two girls made tbe best sugar cookies..now they make them with our grandbabies..some tradations never get old..great memories..he will make his next week..cant wait..
My grandmother used to make some very similar cookies. We never refrigerated the dough that she made and we didn't usually make shapes out of them but we did use the sugar. Normally we would make balls and then dip the bottom of a glass in the sugar and smash the balls out to the size and thickness we wanted. After they cooled she stored them in one of the larger ice cream tubs she had saved. Her cookies ended up a lot like yours do as a final product. For grandma these were a year round cookie. Something that if you wanted a little something you always knew where the tub was sitting on the counter and you could guarantee that 99% of the time there were some there.
It would be good to see a picture of you and your brother or the girls making cookies with you! I had a sugar cookie recipe I started using in my early teens. I was the oldest and became the dessert maker as I was growing up.
Tipper, when you and the girls were talking about Katie's ring, it reminded me of my greatgrandmother's ring. She was born in 1861 and was just a baby when her daddy went to fight in the Civil War. Before he left he took a coin and laid it on the railroad track and left it for a train to run over and smooth out. I can't remember if it was a ring or a necklace he made for my greatgrandmother but it was one or the other. He gave it to her to remember him by, and it's a good thing he did because he didn't come back from the war and is buried near Chicago in a prisoner-of-war cemetery. Someone in the family still has the ring and I would love to see it.
Paula-what a story of love. Thank you for sharing it!
That quarter ring is so cool! My Christmas cookie recipe is just buying the Pillsbury cookies with the snowman on them. LOL Those cookies look delicious, and fun to make.
A lot of fun went into these sugar cookies for sure! My grandkids helped me make some Mrs. Fields cookies a few months ago, that was a blast!🙄 Hopefully we can make some Tea Cakes together during the Holidays. I have many of my Grandmother's and Mother's hand written recipes, many of which they wrote on cut out pieces of cake mix boxes. 😀
Lots of fun, and love! Nice video. Merry Christmas to you all.
Thank you 😀
What a fun video…I loved hearing the stories of the cookie making from when you were little to when the girls were little…awesome memories that y’all just keep adding to…my mama had a favorite sugar cookie recipe and she made them to giveaway at Christmas every year…her recipe had powdered sugar in it & sometimes she would use lemon extract in a few but my favorite was just plain with vanilla extract….after they were refrigerated she would pinch off tiny bits of dough and pat them so thin…they were fragile….like Moravian sugar cookies, if you’ve ever had those….but she would wear herself out making lots of batches…I have her recipe & need to try my hand at them…and maybe use some orange peel in a batch….enjoy those yummy cookies!!
Thank you Brenda 😀
My mother has that same pig cutting board you have hanging behind the counter hanging on the door to the pantry.. Big round pig vs a long pig. It was a gift to my mom from her mom around 1948. It was given as a joke but mom didn't think so and now 70 years later she still uses it.... (and nobody gets sick....lol). Thanks
😀
What a special relationship you all have. Brings tears to my eyes.
It was so fun watching you and your girls make cookies!
