Jaci cuts my hair at 3:00 on Thursday afternoons, once every quarter year or so. She doesn't charge anything, so once in awhile I bake something and take it to her. One day I went there, and while she was cutting my hair, she was telling her house-helper to bake something. She listed the ingredients, and I asked her what she was getting made. "Almond bars," she said. So I tried to remember all she said and wrote it down as soon as I got home! Everywhere I take them, they're always a hit, and they're always appropriate for the event or occasion. So that's how I got this recipe--while I was getting my hair cut! Thanks, Jaci!
