Always eat grapes downward - that is eat the best grapes first; in this way there will be none better left on the bunch, and each grape will seem good down to the last. If you eat the other way, you will not have a good grape in the lot. |

These cookies require precision timing and fast action but the
results are worth the trouble. I make them for holidays and special
occasions, but they are delicious anytime.
Preheat oven to 350ø. Butter and flour baking sheet.
In a small, heavy pan, place all ingredients. Cook over low heat,
stirring constantly until butter melts. Drop by teaspoonful: onto
baking sheet (do not bake more than six at one time).
Bake at 350ø for 7-9 minutes. Cookies should be only slightly brown
and still bubbling at the center. Let cool only for a minute or so
until the edge is firm enough to lift with a thin spatula Then,
working quickly, lift cookies and turn them top side down onto paper
towels. Roll over the handle of a wooden spoon to get a cylinder
shape and let cool until crisp.
Use a fresh cookie sheet for each baking to avoid cookies sticking on
sheet. If cookies get too firm to roll over the spoon handle, place
back in the oven for a few moments.
Store cookies in an airtight cookie jar or tin. They will keep for a
long time, and can be made well ahead of the holiday season.
Variations: These cookies also can be left flat-make them smaller if
you do that; however, they don't have the flair of the rolled lacy
effect. Or roll ends of cooled cookies in melted chocolate.
