{Old Fashioned} Lemon Loaf

So on the weekend we had a Lemon Themed Bridal Shower, complete with lemon centerpiece. So what happens when the party is over and the centerpiece is dis-assembled? You make Lemonade and Lemon Loaf of course! After the party we shared out the lemons, because there was a lot! We all drink water with lemon, but you can only have so much lemon sliced for water before it dries out. So I called up my Mom and got her Lemon Loaf recipe, which is actually my Great Grandmothers recipe. Another recipe to add to the Old Fashioned Recipes I've been sharing. Whats the point of a great recipe if you can't share with others?

The Cookie with 100 Names

Ok here's another long lost, "old fashioned" recipe for ya! For some reason the pouring rain here in Halifax reminded me of these cookies. I don't think its really an Old Fashioned recipe but they've been around FOREVER and I used to make them with my mom when I was just a wee one. So they are Old Fashioned to me.

Whether you call them Spider Cookies {how they were known in our house}, Haystacks, Chocolate Macaroons, or Frogs these cookies are always good! and so so easy! I whipped these up while Tyler and Charlee were putting together her Hungry Hungry Hippos Game and had the first game.  We all played a few games while they were cooling, then sat down with Milk and Spider Cookies. Made for a great family evening. So lets get to it shall we, the recipe!
