"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Personal Notes:
Chocolate Tangos, as we called the cookies, were a popular lunchroom treat in the Lincoln County School System that my Grandmother Scott and Aunt Helen prepared for the children in the Howell School. When I was growing up, every other Sunday, my family would go to either Grandmother Scotts or Grandma Thomason's house for Sunday lunch and playing with cousins. At both homes wonderful meals were always prepared. Grandmother Scott gave us many of the recipes that were used in the Howell School. Chocolate Tangos were a favorite at my home growing up which were made by my mother and a favorite at my own Hardin home.
