Snoozy

Snakes, I heard that putting Cream of Tarter in your whites while beating can make a stiffer meringue..

snoozy...
actually I did put in Cream of Tartar .. went out and got a new bottle specifically for the cookies (though I think about another acid like lemon juice will do in a pinch....). It turns out that the cookies came out tasting the way I remember them as a kid and they are all gone now. :P
Weird... It is supposed to get to 60°F here by Friday. That will melt our snow.
