Personal Notes:
When we were living in Corcoran, MN, two of our neighbors organized a Christmas cookie exchange. There were about 12 of us that participated, each bringing 12 plates containing 1 dozen cookies. Of the 11 plates of cookies I got; your dad only liked these, and every year (but one) I have added them to my cookie trays.
