My recipe for Fat Friday is.... Cowboy Cookies!! I hope you enjoy.
First, a tribute to a hometown cowboy..........
Here he comes,
Here he comes,
There's the trumpets,
There's the drums,
Here he comes,
Hopalong Cassidy!
William L. Boyd was born in Cambridge, Ohio , June 5, 1895. In 1934 William Boyd became Hopalong Cassidy. He wore a black outift that contrasted perfectly with his white horse, Topper.

ReplyDeleteThose cookies sound delicious to me but unfortunetly my hubby doesn't like coconut. I'm actually getting ready to make a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. By the way, I have added you to my bloglist.

Kim, I got the idea from the pickled pepper patch and the apples came from The Dollar Tree. Try them they are easy and so realistic!!!! Dawn
