A place to share ideas on making a comfortable home. I do it through quilting, being faithful to my Faith, and caring for my family. Being a Catholic, sewing, and baking cookies are a few of my favorite things. I'm open to discussion!

Gingerbread Shortbread
I ran out of shortening and the results with using butter were a spicy cookie with a shortbread texture. No one is complaining!
After spending a couple of hours just doing my own sewing stuff, I decided to close down early and make the family a treat. My son isn't feeling well so I figured some ginger in his life (and stomach!) wouldn't go amiss.
As you can see from the pictures, my baking sheets are very, very old friends and show their wear. I wouldn't trade them for the world as they do such a good job of baking for me. I like the fact that they have rims which makes them double when I want to bake a batch of bar cookies or make a sheet cake.
It's funny what becomes a favorite in your life as you grow older!
