This blog has been on hiatus since May and has had several demands to get on with the program. It seems rather fitting then to start back at the beginning with the sugar cookie war. I did not take photos this time (yes, I know some of you will be sad), imagine the same mess as in the beginning but on wax paper and only a little on the countertop. I managed to make 5 sugar cookies before everything went to "too sticky-ville". This time I used the flour smuggled in from Nebraska and reduced the sour cream by half and used the reduced fat variety. They don't seem to be quite as sticky as they've been in the past. Taste pretty darn good too. Further research is required to peacefully and tastily end this war. I am not yet defeated.
I have decided it is much too hot to bake in the summer in the South and I imagine Grandma would agree. I have, however, made a few recipes here and there, sadly without pictures, but recipes will be put in Grandma's recipe box.
Ok, I got unlazy enough to take a picture of 4 cookies (I admit to eating the star)...

| Remain 4 of 5 cookies, 2 stockings, candy cane and a drum. Yes, I was too lazy to sugar them and make them pretty. |
