Personal Notes:
This recipe was given to me by my Boise friend, Tami Woodward. She was a bleached blond, heavily make up wearing, squeaky voiced woman that I hated when I first met. Over the course of two years she became one of my dearest friends. I learned to not be turned off by first impressions from Tami. She helped me take care of the first 3 children and then she moved away. Tami was a Thalidomide baby who had numerous health issues over the years I knew her. I lost track of her several years ago, but think of her often. You all loved these crazy cookies!
