Thankful Thursday December 22, 2021

What could be in this cookie jar.....?


Gingersnaps with Cinnamon Red Hots on top!
Yum!

Many thanks to Brian for Thankful Thursday!
And many thanks to my Mom who encouraged me
to be the family baker starting when I was
only 10 years old. Truth be told my Mom was a
fabulous cook, but did not care to make desserts.
So, she made all the delicious breakfasts and dinners
and I made all the cookies, Birthday cakes and pies.
We were a great team! 
My three younger brothers and sister certainly ate well!
Have a wonderful Thankful Thursday!
