Thank you. I enjoy cooking and eating ginger cookies. I like the smell cooking them leaves in the house.

Ginger has to be one of the greatest flavors ever!

Soft warm Ginger cookies with an iced cold glass of milk!!!!!!

(I'm crying!)

These sound really good!! I have everything but the ginger to make em! Dang, guess I need to go shopping!!

Dang, I did find some ginger!! Maybe I'll make these this afternoon! Thx

Yum! I have to try these. They are probably so much better than the hard-as-a-rock store bought ones.

I sent the recipe to a friend this morning. She fixed them. I was asked to past on her thanks. She said " they are grand "

I will get some of the cookies tomorrow. Looking forward to testing a dozen or more.

they were even better the next day

Imagine she would not drive here in 12 inches of snow to bring me some. I will comsume my share tomorrow.

Have my cookies this morning,They are great, of course the dear lady that baked them did a wonderful job. Cookies and milk for breakfast.

I love ginger cookies.

Wish I could share these are so good with cold milk. Anything is good when made with love.
