Hello...
The 'photo' is so NEAT!!!
and needless, to say, the Recipes'...
YES, both cookie recipes!
I copied down the 'Spicey Fruit' recipe and I plan on baking that one, too.!
The 'recipe' page looks like some that were in my
Mother's personal file!...One that I really liked that she made for me as a child...I even had 'framed...as is...'
and hung it on the wall in my kitchen...!
Thank-you for sharing...recipes, as well as, memories!

What a priceless memory of your grandma, notcho - I TREASURE those few hand written recipes from family members that I have come to possess. Erin was looking through my recipes boxes a few weeks ago - remarking about this recipe or that, and the memories that were tied to it - when she suddenly stopped and said "It's sad that my generation won't have anything like this". I realized how absolutely correct she was - with computers and the internet, people seldom hand write a recipe anymore. We were both sad to think that this history of what we've eaten, enjoyed, passed down from one generation to the next, will one day soon be a thing of the past. So treasure those hand written recipes you have, and be sure to jot down a few family favorites for your daughter to treasure some day in the far, far future!!!
