The Lutheran Cookies

When planning my Mom's memorial we needed someone to put together a reception type deal for afterward.Not one of my strengths,event planning,and my ultra-organized cousin had yet to arrive.So the neighbor ladies volunteered to arrange everything.In meeting with them they mentioned that they had never seen Mom in church and they attend both Lutheran churches in town.I informed them that my Mom was a good Southern Baptist that didn't go in for any Yankee Lutheran foolishness.They were disappointed but carried on.They baked a small mountain of brownies but the big hit was the cookies.I think they were trying to sneak in a little recruiting for the Lutherans with their baked goods.I don't know if they got any converts among the Baptists,but I know I'll never forget the Lutheran cookies.
