I’m pretty sure I need more than just “rum cookies” to get me through this time! I did so good not drinking or stress eating the entire time, and I’m happy to report my family is safe and dry, but may of our friends around us are not. I’m going to do a few scheduled post while we are trapped in our neighborhood, but just a heads up I’ll be spreading them out instead of regular ones as we volunteer and help others in our area who are not as lucky as we are. It’s a time to come together as one and help our fellow people out. I’ll try to do some live updates on Facebook so be sure to follow me there.

These cookies are really easy to make and taste light fluffy and full f rum flavor! One of our new favs!!
