Don't you think it's about time that we create a Family Cookbook? Well, I DO! I've spent some time researching trying to come up with the easiest (free) way to get it going, and I believe this is it. Please post any of your favorite recipes, also any tips -- cooking, household, beauty, whatever -- and any inspirational thoughts (whether your own, or someone else's.) I would LOVE to have pictures to include as well. You could take pictures of the dishes/recipes you are submitting, or even just great pictures (or even below average pictures) of you and your family!

Please label each post with an appropriate label (i.e., salad, dessert, vegetarian, household tip, inspiration, etc.) Go ahead and add labels as needed; and it's ok to have more than one label per recipe/post.

My plan is to take what we assemble here, and put it into book form. I would love to have it ready for our Thanksgiving Extravaganza!

Best Sugar Cookies Ever

Sugar Cookies

1 c. shortening
2 c. sugar
3 eggs
1 c. sour cream
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp vanilla
4 to 5 c. flour

Mix all ingredients together in order as listed. I like to refrigerate the dough for a little while, but it is not necessary. Roll dough out and cut into shapes. Bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes.
