From my notebook...


Pumpkin Cookies

1 C shortening
1 C sugar
1 C solid-packed pumpkin
1 egg
2 C all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt

Cream the shortening, sugar, and pumpkin together with a mixer. Add the egg and mix well. Sift together the dry ingredients and then add them to the creamed mixture. Drop rounded teaspoonfulls onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes.

OK, the shortening part isn't so great (but do you know they make organic shortening? So it's OK, right? Because it's organic!) but these are really, really yummy.
