The Elkhorn-Waterloo Assembly #38 Cookie Jar




When new girls are initiated into our Assembly, we tell them that-
"Rainbow is like a cookie jar...
you only get out of it what you put into it"

Welcome to our cookie jar page-you will find some of our favorite recipes from some of our favorite cooks. We would like to honor here some of the people who help support our Assembly but sometimes get very little credit. This page is for the Advisory Board members, the Masonic Lodge and Eastern Star members, the parents, and the friends of our Assembly who cook, bake, and decorate at our dinners, refreshment times, bake sales, or whenever we need goodies. We also would like to thank those who do the most important job at all these events. Those who
CLEAN UP !!!!

So, thanks to all of you, and we hope you will enjoy some of our favorite recipes. Keep checking back, we will be adding more
