argh. your aunts do not amuse me.
i had my heart set on a nice fluffy sour cream cookie or three.
as you started this and got me and probly others all excited i think it is
up to you to google and work your way thru the various sour cream cookie
recipes til you find one that is similar in taste and texture.
theres a mess of 'em out there so ya best get a move on young man,
times'a'waste'n and i'm'a'salivate'n.
how rude of them to not save a recipe as good as those sound. how rude!!!
well, whatcha wait'n for?
to the kitchen to bake perchance to get lucky on the first try.

sour cream cookie recipe, but no one has ever fessed up.
Sad face.

When my son's school had bake sales the big seller was rice krispy
treats. Dead easy to make. I'd cut them into big squares, wrap each in
plastic wrap and seal with a cute sticker. Maybe you can even find
quilt stickers :-)
You'd be surprised how many husbands and kids will be at your show.

My mother usually bakes biscotti for this type of thing. I don't have any of
her recipes, but I did find a couple of sites with some:

Lois, the cookie lady, might be persuaded to reveal her recipe for
Pistachio cookies. I will ask, if you would like. They are very good,
and I have never heard of anybody not taking a second one.
