Sunday was cookie-making day... since my husband loves sugar cookies, I decided to make "Christmas Roll Cookies" a recipe I received last year from Christa at cneu photo {you see, we were both a part of Brooklyn Bride's fun and festive card swap last year.} Christa's adorable vintage-style holiday card also came with a real vintage recipe {published in 1957} from Christa's "men-folk loving recipe sharing Grandma" Well Christa~ my man-folk love 'em! Thank You!
