They are really good cookies.
They got there name because she would always make them and have them around or take them to family get together's. And then one day one of the grandson's (Jared) started calling them Yucky Cookies. I think it was because of all the great things in them he did not like in them.

These are the ones! Thank you so much! And posting the new photo of Grandma makes them even more special to me. Thanks, Sue.

Jared hated the nuts, that is why they were Yucky Cookies. :)
:-) I figured that was the reason. I just got a kick out of how the name stuck. When I make them, I'll have to take them to my work because no one in my family could deal with the all the nuts either.

I made them this Sunday morning, I really think they should be called Bird seed cookies. Because of all the stuff in them.
