NOTES : These are similar to Pecan Sandies, but they're crisper and
not crumbly. I like these better. :-)

When Mom made cookies, she always made about three thousand batches at
once. Instead of just refrigerating and baking the cookie dough, she
often froze several rolls for future use. They usually didn't last
long enough to be baked. That dough is really good frozen!!

They're WAY good! I haven't made them in eons. It's fun to remember,
though.

These look really good!

Any chance that anyone will want to do a goodie exchange this year?
Like cookies, or fruitcake, or other Christmas goodies? A few of the
threads these past few days have me thinking about that.. Yes, I know
it's early....but.....

I'd consider it but I've got a really lousy track record with these
things -- the two times I've participated, I've sent my stuff and
received nada in return. Woe is me.
