James rolled over today!!!! A couple times actually! I finally caught it on tape.

Here is another one of James talking.

Molasses Cookies

I found a recipe online that was ok...but I then messed around with it and came up with this one.

1 1/2 cup butter

1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup molasses

2 eggs

4 teaspoons baking soda

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1 teaspoon cloves

1 teaspoon ginger

1 teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon salt

4 cups flour

Melt butter, cool then blend well with sugars. Add the molasses and eggs. Add baking soda and all the spices and salt. Add the flour one cup at a time.

Roll into walnut-size balls and place on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 8 min.

They do get hard after a day or 2, so to keep them fresh when store them put a slice of bread in a bag with them.

They are so good and even better with a cup of cold milk! They also make a good gift to give to friends and neighbors.

Enjoy!
