may cookie: ginger snaps

I'm a couple weeks behind on the may cookie, so please excuse the delay. now I love cookies, but a cookie without chocolate? not my fave. but my friend at work had a birthday and her favorite cookie happens to be a ginger snap, so I thought I'd give 'em a whirl. they were very simple to make. the dough came together nicely & they developed these cute crinkles while cooking. oh, and the house smelled amazing. and best of all, kate loved them & said they tasted as good as her mom's (which is the greatest compliment of all).
