I had my first one (Old Fashioned) when I was about 21 - thought it was the thing to drink if one was going to drink. It was whiskey, wasn’t it - with fruit? I seem to remember something floating in the glass...I hope it was fruit!! Never had another one. That’s more years ago than I care to remember. Never developed a taste for any of it but will go for a Bailey’s Irish Creme on New Years Eve and perhaps finish the small bottle through the year when the politicians get the better of me...in fact, just finished this year’s bottle on 11/2.....by way of celebration tho’.

ping for later...
Will do!
It’s a ‘Wisconsin Thang...’
“Modern” Old Fashioned Recipe
Ingredients:
1 1/2 ounces bourbon or blended whiskey (Or Southern Comfort!)

1 or 2 dashes of Angostura bitters

Orange slice, Maraschino cherry and orange twist for garnish BUT - I like mine with green olives...I always order a ‘Southern Comfort Old Fashioned Sweet with Olives.’
Instructions:
Muddle sugar, soda and bitters in rocks glass, pour whiskey into glass and stir. Garnish and serve.
I love those, too! :)
Those ones with the little holly leaves? That’s showing off. ;-)
I’m always in charge of the Spritz because I’m the only one in the crowd that has an electric cookie press.
This year I’m making, white, chocolate and green ones. :)
I’m doing two types of ‘thumbprints’ this year: Jam & Chocolate. :)
*DROOL* :)
What?!? No purple and orange polka-dotted ones! Terrible! /s ;)
Mo’ and les’ then you think...
Oh. My. God. I’m in love, LOL!
Printed! Thanks!
When you say anisette, you do mean the actual liqueur out of the Big-Girl bottle, not the tiny little Barbie bottle of anisette flavoring, correct?
“...or a big pot of soup on the stove and Christmas music on....my favorite day...”
Me, too! Life. Is. Good. :)
Purple is not a natural cookie color. Purple is best saved for wine, LOL!
Frosted sugar cookies. I don’t have the recipe where I can get to it right now. Any good sugar cookie recipe will do. The fun is in frosting them. You roll the cookie dough out and cut it in various Christmas shapes, and bake them. Skip the part where you sprinkle them with sugar. Have several bowls of different colored frosting, sprinkles, candies, colored sugar, etc. You need a lot of room to lay the frosted cookies out to dry.
Boy, could I have used a cookie thread back in October, my FRiends on the early morning Quinn and Rose thread had to read of my ‘CookiePalooza” baking for my daughter’s wedding daily...for a week...they were kind enough to talk me thru rerolling my Russian Tea cakes in powdered sugar (who needs to read all the way to the bottom of a recipe?!?! Lol).
I have a Lemon Drop recipe and also an Apricot (or you can use any preserve or ground nut paste) cookie that is also really good. I love to bake...and I think when it was all over we I had done 140 dozen cookies (and yes, I was in a sugar induced haze...you HAVE to ‘test’ repeatedly your product). I will post the recipes from home (hate to type long posts from phone).
