The rustling of wrapping paper and the sharp sound of Scotch tape tearing greeted me as I stepped through the basement door. I inhaled the scent of sugar cookies, my Grandma’s classic treat. No one made them like she did. Her basement was a busy bustle as aunts and cousins gathered to lend a hand […]
