Snickerdoodles…

Posted: January 22, 2008 at 5:59 pm by pann

… if you’re home with a four-year-old who isn’t feeling all that great, and she asks for Snickerdoodles, you just have to make them.

That’s the rule.

EDIT: Reader Lisa asked for enlightenment concerning Snickerdoodles. A wonderful kind of cookie. Below is a recipe for Oatmeal Snickerdoodles, but regular ones without the oats are pretty divine too.  The “all new” Joy of Cooking has a very decent recipe as well. The cookies are buttery and sweet, with a cinnamon sugar coating. They are tender when fresh out of the oven; they are crisp later on, and can be too crisp if you get distracted while they are baking, perhaps playing Scrabulous on Facebook, for example. Ahem.

Oh, you poor deprived person. Here’s the recipe.

    Good to know.

    Of course, as long as mine lack language I will still be able to get away with grahams.

    Um, please enlighten me, what’s a snickerdoodle?

  4. Stacie Says:

    Lisa - Snickerdoodles are WONDERFUL cookies.

    Pann - If one were to sign up for Linkworth and one were asked for a referral ID and that would basically be you what would that ID be?

    As for Linkworth, my friends… I have added a convenient link so that others may sign up if they want to try a form of advertising that is not based on PER CLICK like SOME advertising programs. The link near the top of my right sidebar for Linkworth will give you a chance to sign up if you want to check it out.

    And Cammy’s Snickerdoodles are THE BEST I HAVE EVER HAD.

    When I make them, I always try — and fail — to make them as good as Cammy’s!!!

    So, Cammy, before you unpack or anything, how about making us a batch! (kidding!)

    Well, I will definitely have to try them… after all, if sick four-year-olds have the undeniable right to request them - who am I to say no? I’d best learn how to make them properly well in advance.

    the thing about therapy is that it’s hard to find not only a *good* therapist, but also one that works for you in particular.

    I’ve experienced boredom with therapy myself. I think some sessions are priceless, some sessions are worthless and many fall somewhere in between.

    But for me, at least, I can easily forget that I have ISSUES dammit!! I need SUPPORT DAMMIT!

    My other motto: If Mamma ain’t Happy, Ain’t Nobody Happy.
