Personal Notes:
Our friendship with the Lowman family (Maggie, Greg, Rachel, Emily & Laura) began at the Poolesville Community Preschool with Lori Defnet and Emily being in the same class. Evidence of many play dates over the years, Lori's growth chart is still etched on the Lowman pantry door like one of the family. These Molasses cookies were one of our favorites, making an appearance every holiday season but good enough for any season!
