My sister makes these Russian Tea Cakes every year at Christmas time.
They are my weakness.
Yum, seriously.

Do you remember what you received for gifts last year?
Now that's a conversation starter!
I asked my hubby that over breakfast a couple of days ago.
He didn't remember.
I remember what I received.
How about you?
How about you?

I probably remember more what I gave than what I received ... :o) Now you have me thinking :o) Thank you for the yummy cookie recipe. Love those and your recipe looks easier than the one I use. Will have to try it :)
Thanks for the recipe!
I love, love, love Mexican wedding cakes. One of my alltime favorite cookies, especially at Christmas. Yumm. Thanks for the recipe.

Thanks for sharing. Will have to think about what i gave and what i received.
I love these buttery little morsels no matter what you call them.
Day 3 - Thank you!
Ummm, last year's gifts. Maybe later in the day I can remember! hahaha! I'm sure it was quilt-y things like books...the family knows how to please me!
That is a good conversation starter! Helping people brush powdered sugar off their fronts is another!
Russian Tea Cakes, Snowballs, call them what you may. I call them delicious! I receive a Jeopardy Trivia calendar every year for Christmas and I love it!
You are making me hungry! Thanks for sharing your recipes.
BTW-I remember what I got for Christmas last year!
XOXO,

Oh, your conversation starter can really stump some people! To this day, my sisters always buy me some type of doll (we're all in our 50s!) Thanks for sharing your recipe!
Great recipe! I still do remember! Thanks so much!
Some gifts I remember some I don't. Or I may remember the gift, but not if it was from last year or the year before. The recipe sounds yummy!
Love Russian Tea Cakes! I will have to try your sister's recipe.
Love these cookies! One of my favorites. Thanks for sharing the recipe with us.
What a great idea! It would be hard to remember what gifts were received a year ago, but it would fun to see who remembered!
I don't remember what I received, but, do remember giving my hubby a Wii! We love to bowl with it - gets us up and moving. I think these "Mexican Wedding Cookies" are the ones my daughter made for their wedding since her husband is from Mexico. They were really good! Haven't had them since, will make some for my SIL for Christmas as a surprise. Thanks for sharing. HUGS... and stitches
Thanks for another great recipe.
Great question! And I do remember; ok ~ mostly remember. :)
I don't usually make these cookies, but I love to eat them!
I love these cookies! We sometimes put a peanut m & m inside too!!
Thank You for the hop I love it and love the recipes too!
I am so terrible about remembering my gifts...why is that? Anyway, I love Teacookies. Thanks for the recipe.
I do remember my gifts last year!
I bake these alot! My niece has a serious addiction! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the recipe, the preschool teacher's aid made these last year. YUM!
Thank you for the great recipe! Another one added to the "make this one" list!!
Mmmm....good. Loved your block yesterday. Especially, in orange. Thanks.
LOVE Russian Tea Cakes....worth all the powdered sugar messiness down your shirt...LOL!
Christmas & men....is it a genetic malfunction, or WHAT? At the risk of sounding sexist, I find most men just aren't "into" Christmas the same way women are. Would we even have a tree, if it weren't for my kids & me? Oh, boy...that doesn't sound very flattering, but it's the truth...LOL!

My mom used to make these every year. Thanks for the recipe. Last year I got books from my daughter and daughter-in-law. they organize pictures from the year and order the books from Snap fish or Shutterfly. It is a priceless gift.
They look delicious. I gave my husband a book, I just asked him and he remembered!!!!!!
Those sounds terrific. I can't wait to try them. I got a gift certificate to the Local Quilt Shop. Can't think of anything better.
I received a Sony eReader and a quilt shop gift certificate for Christmas last year. Both were just what I wanted! Thank you for the recipe.
Have a wonderful day!
Great recipe for the tea cakes. I remember the quilt books and fabric I received.
Recieved lots of fabric. ( is there anything else) great recipe
These are some of my favorite cookies! The holidays were a blur last year but I do remember a couple of books I received. how terrible!
I remember the gift certificate to the fabric store which I blew through the day after Christmas.
Love your cookie recipe. Thanks for the holiday party tips too.
Messy, but oh so good!!
Thanks for the yummy recipe! :-)
Great recipe, my favorite.
I received a great photo of my kids from their trip to Disney World. I love it and your recipe. ~Kathleen
Thank you for the great recipe!

Russian Tea Cakes are the first cookie I make at Christmas time. Every year I wonder why I don't make some of these cookies more often. My best gift from last year was a baby bib and newborn outfit. I thought somebody lost ther mind until I realized they were telling me I was to be a Grandma again.
Hmmm...think I'll ask my hubby the same question! ;-) Thanks for the recipe!
I remember what I received - a sweet Joanne's gift card!
These are one of my favorite cookies. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I remember what both I and my husband received last year. I remember most of what I gave other people, too. My husband doesn't remember any of it, which probably explains why he usually forgets to get me a present. LOL
Russian Tea Cakes are my favorite holiday cookie! Thanks for sharing your recipe!
That's a great question! It puts into perspective how silly it is to spend all that money and worry about getting the right thing for everyone when no one remembers a year later.

These are my weakness too!!!
This would be a well received cookie in my family.
Thanks for the great recipe. I do remember my gifts. One that we get every year and love is a calendar with a picture of our grandkids for each month.
My favorite treats at the holidays!!
Thanks for sharing!
My grandma always made these at Christmas time.....sweet memory!
I remember some. The worst was when I forgot a gift that I had given my sister! (Asked her where she got a particular item)
Last year was our first year of no job income. I remember the homemade gifts we shared..and the sweet gifts my children gave us..gift certificates to Wal-Mart for food and survival items. Boy did they come in handy.The grandchildren gave us homemade ornaments and handprints..I do believe it was one of the sweetest Christmas we had had.
