Duke’s Jam Cookies
When I watched my Grandma Edith make cookies for the first time, I knew I was hooked. We are Swedes, ok Grandma was a full-blooded Swede, and myself a mere .25. Our family tree on my Mom’s side kind looks like it was doing great, chugging along back a few generations, then on one side…
