I bet these are yummy!


Oh honey, they are forever on my hips, I believe. Lisa won the tacky gold cookie cutter trophy with this one. I keep hoping to win the best cookie in the swap, but I seem to come up a few votes short each year. But it is all in good fun and we have so much fun and our families are very happy with the residuals.


This is right up my alley! Thanks!
