Well...I posted the one recipe from my kitchen towels before, "Peppermint Cupcakes", and now I am getting ready to post "3" more from other kitchen towels.

This one is "Mom's Special Birthday Cupcakes"...next one will be "Mom's Best Bake Sale Brownies"...and the one after that will be "Mom's Favorite After School Snickerdoodles".

I love Kitchen Towels with recipes on them.....everytime I see one, new or old, I have to get it...=;D
