How many times has this happened to you: You're invited to a friend's or relative's home for dinner. You're leery about what they're...
WOW, I have never tasted such yummy almond cookies before, in the afternoon, before dinner, it is really very perfect snack along with a glass of juice. When my mom showed them to me the first time, great! She made a lot. It is enough for a week, next week I will try again!
