I love the idea of your 47 cookie recipes and other cookie recipes for the Holidays. It’s just at my age 72 almost 73 it is hard to sit at my desk and download them. Is there a PDF file of these Recipes that could be downloaded at one time? I have a hard time because I have a form of Arthritis called Osteo Penia which is also called brittle bone disease. I just call it Swiss cheese disease because it causes my bones to look like Swiss cheese. Lots of holes through all my bones. If I move wrong or do something for a long time it could cause my bones to break or even shatter.
Thanks for your help
Dian says
Jackie,
I’m sorry to hear about your Arthritis, I can’t even imagine how terrible that can be.
I wish I could make you a pdf of these to make it easier for you, but since it’s a roundup of cookies from other bloggers and myself. I can’t take their content and put it in a pdf that way.
I’m sorry – I know that makes it a bit more difficult :/
Please let me know if there’s anything I can ever do to help, and thanks for sharing with me.
