Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Grandma always had little thin sugar cookies or this cake on her table. Seems like she kept the cookies in a round, metal, yellow pan with a lid on it.

Her little thin, crisp sugar cookies at Christmas time would have little cut-up pieces of raisins for the reindeer eyes and red hots for the top of the Christmas tree cookies.
Such good memories of Christmas at Grandma's house.
