Musical Father's Day...

 When I see Father's Day cookies posted in "blog-world"...

I typically see neckties, tools, cars, hunting, and the like.

But for MY dad...it means music.

 My dad's life has revolved around the piano.

 He is an amazing performer.

He plays, writes, and also has his music out on cd.

 His career involved teaching piano lessons for some time.

 And then building a very successful piano tuning/repair business.

So when thinking about what kind of cookies to make for Father's Day for him...

Piano/musical was definitely the route to go for me.

I hope all of you dads had a wonderfully, blessed day spending the day with your families!

Lemon Cooler Cookies

Growing up, I always remember my dad loving Lemon Cooler Cookies.

We'd buy them at the store all the time.

Over the years, it seemed they were harder and harder to find.

 There have been some "knock-offs" and "remakes" of them...but I don't think we've ever been able to find the REAL Lemon Coolers anymore.

Imagine my joy when I found this recipe for HOMEMADE Lemon Cooler Cookies!

I knew I just had to try making them for my dad.

And you know what?

They are really great!

I decided to put together a little gift basket for him for Father's Day full of these Lemon Coolers!

I have to thank Confessions of a Cookbook Queen.

It was SHE who found this amazing recipe!

I can't wait to make these again!

Next time...for ME!
