In honor of Aunt Rosie--cookie recipe

One of the last remaining matriarchs on the Lupo side passed away this weekend. Aunt Rosie was my Grandma's sister, my great-aunt.

In honor of he I'd like to share a few of her recipes. The cookies were famous. Her husband was Irish so that's why the other recipes were a few she shared with me.
