So, I had this post written, and then it all disappeared.
Sob.
I would have tried to recreate it, but then I had a wanted to make Ginger Snaps.
I used to have a recipe, but I can't find it... any place. It wasn't just any Ginger Snap recipe; I had perfected it over several years so they were perfectly spiced, and soft, and yummy. I don't have a back-up copy anywhere else.
Double sob!

Apparently, you can just decide.
Happy Birthday To You Day
The rumors are true, the Happy Birthday Song is copyrighted. And watch out, there is a grassroots organization who apparently cares about that copyright, and will tell on you if you violate it. According to Wikipedia there is a verse that the birthday person is supposed to sing back.
Sorry, this was not my best effort. It was better the first time. Now I am going feel sorry for myself over my lost recipe.
Sniffle and sob.
I suppose. I guess I can call them Ginger Cookies. It just doesn't sound as snappy.
ReplyDeleteI think I would probably like a soft ginger snap. Usually ginger snaps just make me wish I was eating a snickerdoodle.
ReplyDeleteI am mostly disappointed by snickerdoodles. I like them dry and crumbly, not soft, and most people forget to put the cream of tartar in. It ends up just a sugar cookie with cinnamon on top, which can be good, it's just not a snickerdoodle.
