Things That Make You Go HMMMM - #17

When Ted and I got married, he asked me to get the recipe for Christmas cookies that he grew up with.  They are called Chinese Chews.  They are rather tasty, I have to agree.  So, they have become our standard Christmas cookie every year.  Raja loves them.  Ted loves them.  KayeLynn loves them.  I love them.  Not sure about the rest of them - - but, they are now tradition.  AND WE KNOW how I feel about tradition.

The recipe calls for chopped dates.  I usually buy the dates chopped.  This time, somehow, I ended up with whole dates.  Have you ever looked at whole dried dates??  They look like dehydrated cockroaches.  They are nasty looking.  And when you chop them up - they are sticky as crap.

Just wanted to pass that along.


HMMMMMMM.
