Grandma's Freezer

Molasses Cookies

If I was asked what one memory stands out of Grandma Becker I would reply her baking. To narrow it down further, it would be her molasses cookies. She always kept a few dozen in the freezer chest. The older one. The "newer" freezer was where the corn was kept we froze every summer.

I decided to make a batch today for Bryce, Brooklyn and Briley. I'm not sure if they have ever had Grandma Becker's molasses cookies. Shame on me.

Briley, Brooklyn and Bryce

It's past time!

It's times like this memory that makes me wish I lived closer to them so they could reach into this Grandma's freezer for a cookie. Or three. 

It's a great day to be alive~make it a great day!

Grandma Becker's entry from October 29, 1990
"Windy again but warm and sunny. Good wash day after I could get them on the line. Gerald burnt leaves again. Helen and Ruth both called. Went to Aldies and Kmart. Got a few groceries at Aldi, not much at Kmart. Talked to Eva-Pat still very miserable. Going to W'loo tomorrow to a specialist. Alberta home from Georgia ok".
