July 27, 1904 (118 years ago...wow!) my maternal grandma was born. Right now I don't have a readily available photo of her but I do have a handwritten recipe of hers which brings back so many happy memories of visiting my grandparents on their farm outside of Bloomington, IL. Whenever we visited, a pan of these butterscotch squares would be on the counter waiting for us, famished from the long drive in the family station wagon. (The drives weren't too terribly long, no more than 4-5 hours, but when you can't wait to see your grandparents, that time went soooo slow).
To celebrate Grandma, I'm baking these today and savoring childhood memories.
Great post, and the cookies look easy to make
