Ack! Got a little disturbed however when I saw that Lula had no feet!!!! :Z
I am sad I'm missing the cookies! Especially the creme wafers! I might just have to make those myself - thanks for the recipe!
I don't have egg yolk in my creme wafer filling recipe! Weird. Did you gets yours from Mom?
Peanut butter blossoms are my absolute favorite cookies!!
I planned to make some last weekend, but didn't get around to it. Now the Kisses are just lounging around in the pantry.
I got here because of the plug on your Christmas card. :)
