Kyleighs Cinnamon Cookie Bites
My Great Granddaughter Kyleigh recently came for a end of summer visit with my Granddaughter Tiffany. We thought it might be fun to create a new recipe and do a little baking. Kyleigh is 15 years old and although she is a native daughter of Texas she has lived most of her life in New York. She lives about 1-1/2 hour from New York City. She will be a sophomore in High School and a star soccer player. When she gets home from soccer practice and school she usually has very healthy snacks, however you know what happens at Grandma's (Gigis, that's me) house, sure thing you get cookies if you want them!
We Enjoyed A Lovely Ladies Luncheon At Our Local
Victoria Lady Tea Room
Kyleigh's Mom Tiffany Has Been Coming To The
Tea Room With Me and My Friends For The Past
25 Years and We Brought Kyleigh There Many Times
When She Was A Baby.
