Its September 1st, the unofficial first day of fall for some. Time to start packing up the pool gear and start breaking out the rakes. Before we know it many of us we’ll be hard at work on the weekends raking up leaves.
Even though it still feels much like summer, and really it still is for a few more weeks but lounging by the pool just doesn’t feel the same once September begins, unless you live in a year round warm climate of course.
Most kids are back in school and some will be embarking on their first day back after this holiday weekend. Time to get ready for fall bake sales, kids slumber parties and Friday night football games.
With many of us anxiously awaiting for weekend fall getaways and activities we all need a place to pack our goodies for our adventures, right? For one lucky reader I will be giving away this great set made by Lock and Lock. I am a huge fan of Lock and Lock. Their products are fabulous and dependable. This set I am giving away is perfect to bake it and take it!

Here is a great fall cookie recipe to bake and take while enjoy all the beauty that fall has to offer. These is a cross between a Sugar Cookie and a Snickerdoodle. I can’t classify these quite as a Snickerdoodle as it doesn’t have as much cinnamon or the cinnamon topping but they are so good. These are soft and chewy, with a hint of cinnamon. If you love sugar cookies and snickerdoodles, give these little cookies a try. Its like having a sugar cookie with a hint of cinnamon, hence the name Cinnamon Sugar Cookies.
Cinnamon Sugar Cookies
Ingredients
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup butter, softened
1 ⅓ cup sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a medium bowl sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder and cream of tartar and set aside.
Using an electric mix cream together butter, sugar and cinnamon until blended. Mix in egg and vanilla extract. Slowly add in flour mixture and mix until combined.
Make tablespoon size balls with dough and place on nonstick cookie sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes. Cool on wire rack.
Yields: 4 dozen
Happy cooking and Good luck!

I made pumpkin whoopie pies last fall before I had a blog. They were a disaster! But I’ve learned so much since then, so I’m looking forward to tackling them again.

I tried these with just about a 1/4 tsp. more cinnamon in the mix, then topped them with a cinnamon/sugar combo just out of the oven. To die for and so great for fall!
