Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
My Aunt Mary (Mom's sister) made a version of this cookie for years.
We all loved them; but her version was very complicated. I found this
recipe and have made it for many more years. I make these for Linda every Christmas.
One of you girls needs to carry on the tradition and make these cookies
at least at Christmas time!!!
