Mothering Many

If you are like me, then you have to taste those cookies the minute they are cool enough to touch without raising blisters on your fingers. And if your family is large and you make one batch of cookies, then they disappear in less than 24 hours. This year, I made 3 huge batches of cookies, and we have not polished them off yet, so I can finally speak from experience and tell you that cookies are so much better after they sit for 24-48 hours.

So next time you make cookies, make them a day or so ahead, and then grab one of your personalized pens and scrawl “HANDS OFF” on them. You’ll be so glad you did.
