Cookie #4: Sugar Cookies made by my Grand Niece Lauren - age 7. She actually scooped and rolled over 80 cookies in the sanding color sugar herself. We didn't have a stamp for these cookies, so she personally drew them with a Stampin' Write Pen herself.

Just a thought Patti: If you click to enlarge the pics with the recipes you can see them clearly and could just save them on your own computer if you want them. It's what I did and it works fine!

I just clicked on the picture of both the cookie and recipe and was able to read the recipe just fine this way, except for the one recipe that was laying down. THANKS!! I was wondering how I could get the recipes and was too afraid to ask!
They all look great. What a fun idea.
This cookie swap idea is great! What an absolutely wonderful way to share recipes and get a chance to sample all of them without all the work!
