When John Shea starts really talking, I'll probably change this to funny things he says, but for now, he has us cracking up and our hearts melting daily by the things he does.

I think these taste better when made in cookie form so they're not flat or crispy at all -- but soft and chewy and so flavorful. We love these! Our neighbors do, too. You may want to bake these as gifts because watch out... they're addicting! Fresh eggs from our next door neighbors! We're buying baby ... continue reading...
