I will never get these as thin as my mother can - how CAN you without eggs as glue? Butter, flour and sugar only makes for a huge patience test. I'm happy if i can get a total of 30 cookies out of this recipe. It's a bitter sweet memory now of a former life with a garden, but this Easter cookie baking time was also the time these tulips planted by my mother as a love gift would come up. Domestic bliss ....
