1/2 cup butter or margarine 1/2 cup Crisco 11/2 cup sugar 2 eggs 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 3 tablespoons sour cream 3 cups sifted flour 1/2 teaspoon salt
Mix butter (or margarine), Crisco and sugar until creamy. Add eggs one at a time. In separate bowl, mix baking soda and sour cream until baking soda is completely dissolved. Add to butter mixture. In separate bowl, sift flour and salt together. Add to wet batter and mix well. Dough will be sticky and can then be used as drop dough, if desired. If too sticky, add more flour until it can be rolled  ¼-inch thick. Cut with cookie cutters and bake at 350 degrees until golden brown.
FROSTING 1 pound of margarine or butter 6 cups of powdered sugar 1/8 cup of water Red food coloring
Beat margarine or butter until soft and creamy. Sift powdered sugar and then beat into the margarine/butter a cup at a time until creamy. Beat in water and a few drops of food coloring until smooth. Will frost about 3 dozen cookies.

My grandmother worked in the high school cafeteria in Elyria in the 1940's and 50's and I wonder if it could have been her recipe. Her name was Bertha Mills.

Just a quick thought- I have found in my travels that pre-cooking the bacon 1/2 way makes for a lot better product on any Rumaki. I basically put it in a cold oven on a rack in a 1/2 sheet pan. Oven to 400 degrees. You will have to experiment with time in your oven with the bacon you use. It will probably be less than 10 minutes.

We have a family reunion coming up and I have drawn a blank about what to take. I have a great dessert, but need something more. I was thinking of something cool and light, like a good salad or something along that line.
However, I will take all ideas because I want to contribute something yummy.
