Personal Notes:
Grandma Bonnie talked a lot about these cookies. She had to live in Gainesboro during the week with her grandparents to go to school because it was to far to walk from her parent's farm on Roaring River. Her Grandma Sadler would have them warm and waiting for her when she got out of school.
