These candy cane cookies werea favorite. Everyone wanted to try them - they caused a bit of confusion for the very youngest members but it was always amazing how much they had improved by another year. With the rolling and twisting of the dough they are a great fun cookie and look attractive on a cookie tray. The other cookie was always called Ting-a4ing because it was supposed to look like a bell, and I thought it did until a year or so ago I went to Pendleton with the Extension group to do a Christmas Foods and Crafts Exhibit. When I showed the cookies and called them a bell so many of the people (Pendletonians) saidno-it'sa baby in a blanket. Now I don't know what to call them. It depends on how you look at them.
