I would love the recipe! It looks like the kind my mother used to make!
Done!
We’re making cookies TODAY!
You’ve made me feel downright virtuous (and timely).
I’d like it too!
Your wish is my… well, anyway, I’ll write it up now.
Yes. I made some, too. It took me all day – no exaggeration. How long do yours take?

Yes please, skinny.
Coming right up…
