Meyer Lemon Poppy Cookies taste like spring is just around the corner. Sweet, bright cookies to brighten your day!
Welcome to another edition of Fill the Cookie Jar! For March, we’re focusing our attention on warmer weather and bringing back green to our lives.
I must admit this winter hasn’t behaved like winter at all. Here in PA we’re enjoying temperatures in the 50’s, 60’s and even 70’s. I know it could still snow.
March is coming in like a lion with thunderstorms. Thinking about all this rain could have been snow kind of scares me. I need a comfort cookie asap! š
