Aggle: Made a batch of cinnamon pecan shortbread bars. They are pretty good but not exactly what I had in mind. Mom had a great recipe but it appears that I didn’t save a copy so now I’m questing for it.

Me: I don’t remember this cookie! Tell me more about it.

Aggle: This wasn’t a cookie we grew up with. You may have already gone off to Centre College when Mom started making them. They were a bar cookie made in that little 7” x 11” pan. They weren’t that gooey ‘pecan pie bar’ kinda cookie. Instead they were kinda crisp and were dusted w/ lots of pecans & cinnamon sugar. Mom cut ‘em into rectangles about 1” by 3”.

Me: NOT FAIR.

Aggle: Honey, there are many things in life that are “not fair.”

Me: Name a worser one.

Aggle: Alas, I cannot. There is no worser inequity.
