This National Poetry Month(NPM), I am writing and sharing original poems about food, family and feasts. Sundays will be a day to reshare a poem from the past. A list of links to previous poems is HERE.
Since college days, I have been the queen of holiday cookies. I love baking them and handing them out. Dad was dismayed one year when I baked dozens and gave most away. I did save a couple dozen for him. Chocolate crinkles are one of my favorites. The sesame S cookies are from my mother-in-law’s recipe box. They are meant to eat with coffee.

Love the repetition of family goodies and your remembrance of a beautiful tradition. I’m a baker who loves to share too. Yesterday I made monster cookies and am planning to mail them to family and friends.
Yum! The chocolate crinkles look like the ones we’ve made. My daughter also likes to bake and give away goodies at any holiday.
