(Caleb's cookie says: "It's what you do to me.")

And although I know I've been invited to parties just for these cookies, it's love day so I'm passing the recipe on:
(these are originally from the wonderful Debbie Melle)

2 cups white sugar
1 c shortening
3 eggs
¼ to ½ cup milk
1 tsp salt
3 tsp vanilla
1 tsp lemon extract
3 tsp baking powder
5 cups flour

Cream shortening, sugar, eggs, milk, vanilla, lemon extract. add dry ingredients. roll out to about ¼ inch thick and cut with cookie cutters. Knead in flour as needed to prevent sticking.

Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes

Frosting:

1/2 cup butter
1-2 tsp vanilla
8 oz cream cheese
1 lb pdr sugar (about 4 cups)
Can add lemon or almond extract

And thanks dear family for your sweet Valentines. Wendy W., the girls have carried their mailboxes everywhere for the last 3 days.
