Do remember how hard it was to wait for her to finish mixing the dough, because she would let you lick the beaters when she was finished?
There was nothing better than licking those beaters! The sweet taste of uncooked dough mixed with the danger of consuming raw eggs! (I always felt bad for the kids whose parents actually worried about such foolishness as salmonella)!
Anyhow...today I baked cookies for my children, and since I remember as a child the pure elation I would feel when my mother handed us the beaters...
I stood over the sink and I licked those beaters clean!
Don't worry...
I told my kids that raw eggs could make them sick....
