BIG GRANDMA'S BEST PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
This is my husband's grandmother's recipe that is cherished by the family. They are the best cookie that melts in your mouth. They don't have the normal peanut butter fork crossing...but more of a crackled sugar type cookie... My husband comes from a huge family - and these are one of the cherished recipes!!

GREAT GRANDMA'S SOUR CREAM DROP COOKIES
This recipe was on a card tucked into my mom's recipe box; it's pretty similar to a number of variations that seem to be from the 1930s. A note said "flavor with whatever you like" and of all the flavors I played around with, I thought lemon zest balanced the sweet dough the best. These bake up into tender little cakes that make a great base for whoopie pies. Once baked, they freeze well (thaw for an hour or so on the counter to eat), but start losing their tenderness after more than one day at room temperature.

- Cream sugar, shortening, and butter together in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Mix in sour cream and lemon zest on low speed until no streaks of sour cream remain. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on medium-low just until there are no streaks of yolk, and scraping down the sides of the bowl between additions. Add flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder all at once and mix just to combine.

GRANDMA'S BOILED RAISIN COOKIES
I got this recipe from my mom, who got it from her mom. These are the best raisin cookies I have ever had. They stay very soft! Most people look skeptical of raisin cookies until they try these, and then they ask for the recipe.

SUNDAY CHICKEN STEW
Just as you make beef stew... or pot roast... this is the chicken version! My grandmother Mabel Kennedy Sullivan use to make this for our big family... and we just loved it! It is easy and just a bit different from beef stew. *** Grandmother use to serve this with home made biscuits! http://www.justapinch.com/recipe/colleenlucky7/great-grandmas-pioneer-trail-biscuits/biscuits?k=pioneer&m=colleenlucky7&p=1&o=r ***this is not my photo... but one from the internet.... just to show some chicken and veggies...

- Remove lid (foil). Remove chicken to a plate. Add the chicken soup. Stir the soup in. Put the chicken back on top. Bake covered for 20 minutes. Uncover add the green onions and bake another 20 minutes. Make sure chicken and vegetables are done before adding the thawed frozen peas and heating through before serving..

GREAT GRANDMA'S PIONEER TRAIL BISCUITS
My Great-Grandmother Kennedy use to make these biscuits and passed the recipe down, it became modernized with the use of an indoor oven. My Grandmother Mabel Kennedy Sullivan use to make these for us and taught my mother and I to make them. Grandma Mabel is the one who switched to Crisco or Margarine... Margarine wasn't allowed to be sold in Wisconsin when I was a girl, my grandmother and I would travel with a friend to La Crescent, Minnesota to buy huge amounts of margarine and bring it into Wisconsin... I felt like a smuggler!!!

Steps:
- Place all dry ingredients into a large bowl. Cut in the lard, until mixture looks like meal. Stir in buttermilk. If dough is not pliable, add just enough buttermilk to make a soft, puffy dough that is easy to roll out. Knead dough on lightly floured board about one to two minutes or 25 to 30 times. Roll out dough to about 3/4 inch thick. Cut with floured biscuit cutter, or use a glass of the right size. Place on greased baking sheet. Bake in a 450 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
- *** I don't use LARD. I use either Butter Flavored Crisco or Margarine. The Pioneers cooked them a bit differntly as there were no modern ovens on the trail... They made make-shift ovens that were sitting on coals of the campfire and more coals on top to get a hot oven effect. They also spent a lot of time baking as the ovens were small. They also sometimes made them in a skillet or a heavy pot with a lid (Dutch Oven)with coals under and about 12 - 15 on top.
