ANZAC Biscuits

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

Buy them, or make them, but either way make sure you get some today! To help you celebrate ANZAC day I thought I would share a great recipe with you. I love this recipe and could eat them all year, but today especially I love them for what they represent.
