Christmas Cookies
I have a woman named Loveness who comes twice a week to work in my home. She’s a wonderful Christian woman who recently became a grandmother. Her home is quite full with 4 children, one daughter-in-law and her granddaughter. In addition to working in a total of three homes she has a side business of making chapattis. For those of you who don’t know what a “chapatti” is…it is an Indian fried flat bread – somewhat like a tortilla but much tastier. Having an aptitude for cooking and baking, she enjoys flipping through my cookbooks on her lunch break. Last week, she read the recipe for sugar cookies and asked if I could show her how to make them. The next working day she brought sugar, butter, and flour. You can see the results below. The cookies turned out fantastic and I hope they brought smiles to the faces of her large family!
